It sound like your hobbit server is in several different groups in hobbit-clients.cfg each group that it matches, it adds the checks from that group to its list of checks, it doesn't match a group and then leave the hobbit-clients, it's additive all the way to the end for groups that match. example PAGE=servers PROC sshd HOST=hobbitsrv PROC sshd PROC hobbitd HOST=%(.*)srv(.*) PROC telnetd if hobbitsrv is in the servers page, then it will check procs for sshd, sshd (again), hobbitd, and telnetd -- Jim Sloan Just remember, today is the day you thought tomorrow was going to be yesterday. ----- Original Message ---- From: "shea_greg at emc.com" <shea_greg at emc.com> To: hobbit at hswn.dk Cc: shea_greg at emc.com Sent: Fri, April 9, 2010 5:35:15 PM Subject: [hobbit] phantom processes causing false alerts Hi all, I have a strange problem with procs and am reaching out to the group for help. In the picture below there are numerous 'cron' and 'sshd' processes showing up for this particular host (the hobbitserver). The problem is, all these processes and in particular the ones in error (red) don't belong on this server. I have tried to locate where these phantom processes are coming from, searching hist, histlog, hostdata directories but I'm stuck. The Client Data file does not have any of these processes. Any assistance would be appreciated Thanks Gregory R Shea EMC Corporation

Hi Jim,
Thanks for the response. That was the first place I checked, but no luck. The Hobbit server is all by itself, no includes, no pages, no wildcards.
The URL http://hobbitserver/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh?HOST=hobbitserver&SERVICE=procs uses hobbitsvc.cgi and the man page states: "hobbitsvc.cgi is a CGI program to present a Hobbit status log in HTML form" . I went through all the logs and deleted "procs" for hobbitserver, but no luck. I also looked to see if somehow the logs had the same inode, no luck.
This is driving me crazy
Thanks again Gregory R Shea EMC Corporation
