Hi all...
Finally after a bit of time I was able to create a new version of the hobbit_perl_client (monitor of databases, netapp filers, bea WLS). The download also includes a patch for xymon servers related to graph display for version 4.2.3/4.3.0-beta2/4.4.0. You can find the download here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/hobbit-perl-cl/
I see you created an svn repo ... I would feel much more comfortable if there was more of an appearance of code maintenance. We made some changes to dbcheck.pl on the version we use internally, since there was no activity on this project for a few years ....
If a VCS is available, I will try and see if any of the changes are still applicable.

I know it was my fault but I didn't had the time to work on hobbit_perl_client for quite a long period of time. Now it seems that I start to have back some time to work on it so I created the new version and I had also the intention of putting all the source on the svn. I tried to implement also some of the patches I received in the last years. The code regarding dbcheck.pl is not changed much so probably all the patches you have could be implemented (I just changed something on the tablespace view and for sqlserver/mysql).
On the db-side I'm not a database expert so every change/new functionality would be really appreciated :)
In the next weeks I'll probably also add a new program to the hobbit_perl_client to check jboss server... more on this as soon as I have something "usable" on hand...
Regards, Francesco

I might be worthwhile considering refactoring some of the code, and putting it under a Xymon namespace, and making an official Xymon perl framework.
I have a few other perl checks, and could probably have benefited from some routines, but didn't want to add a new dependency. However, if we make an official perl library that ships with Xymon, it would be less of an issue ...

It would really be nice to have it included in this way so that anyone that want to develop something with perl for xymon can use a unique set of utility/libraries... The biggest problem will probably the lack of documentation (I'm not very good at it) ... but I will probably put some documentation/commenting on the source code very soon... I know that the code is not so clean but I'm also really new with perl (and probably many of the function/procedure could be written better by someone that know the language more then me :).
I will try to put the project on svn soon (in the next few day) and I'll try to start to work with it (I don't know anything about svn so I have to read some docs on how to do those things...).
