Hobbit Environment variables
Throughout the Xymon 4.2.2 documentation, I've been seeing mention of various environment variables (BB, BBCMD, etc.), but I haven't seen anything that set them up. I've been assuming that this was just documentation shorthand to tell the reader "use the 'bb' command here", but now I wonder if that is correct. Is the a script that I should be sourcing in my (or xymon) login scripts to get the proper defintions of these environment variables?

They are defined in hobbitserver.cfg . The recommended way of getting them setup for your scripts is to either run the scripts via hobbitlaunch, or via the 'bbcmd' utility: bbcmd /usr/local/bin/myscript
