[hobbit] hobbit-clients.cfg
I confirmed that there were no hosts listed in the Ghost clients report. I also checked twice that the client was running and I was able to telnet to <Hobbitserver> 1984.
Is there anything else I can check.

I restarted both the server and the client but still do not see the UP LOAD and DISK columns.
Sounds like you haven't got the Hobbit client running on that server, or at least - it isn't reporting into Hobbit with the right hostname.
Check the "Reports->Ghost clients" report and see if your host is listed there - it will be, if the client uses a different hostname than what you have in bb-hosts. In that case, put a CLIENT:clientname entry in bb-hosts so Hobbit knows how to connect the two names.
If it's not in the Ghost client list, then you must check if the client is running at all, and if it can connect to the Hobbit server to send data (from the client, run "telnet HOBBITHOST 1984" and see if it will connect).
BTW, there won't be an UP or LOAD column - these data are presented as part of the "cpu" status.
And there's no need to restart anything when changing this configuration.

Check the log file on the client for any errors.
Verify that the host name on the client is the same as that defined in bb-hosts.

Hobbit debugging 101 commences, I guess. There should be some log files in client/log -- look them over. There aren't many.
How many hosts are there in your bb-hosts? Could this system have been given the wrong name or something like that? You also might look at the server logs too.
I am not much of a Hobbit expert, but others on the list are...

In the client/tmp/ directory, there should be a "msg.HOSTNAME.txt" file, which the client generates before sending it off to the Hobbit server. Show us the first few lines of that file, please.

Hi,
How did you start hobbit-client, did you user init script also make sure that you comment out hostname and os name in /etc/default/hobbit-client then restart using init script
