All,
Every now and then, all of my hosts go red on conn and fail, then come right back up. Below is and excerpt from bb-network.log. As you can see, it's at no set time, no set date, it just plain fails. Any thoughts?

Version of hobbit? Operating system?

2006-03-06 23:20:29 Execution of '/usr/sbin/fping -Ae' failed with error-code 98 2006-03-06 23:20:29 Cannot open fping output file
The "code 98" is an internal code used by Hobbit when it fails to open two files that we use to pick up the output from fping. These go in ~hobbit/data/tmp/ directory, and are called fping-std{out,err}.PID
Perhaps you're short of diskspace ?
Regards, Henrik
Nope, lots of disk space:
df -k .
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/cciss/c0d0p2 69922596 5430680 60229552 9% /
It almost looks like maybe something had a lock on the file preventing something from reading it?
Would the new "hobbitping" work better? How do I get that?

How about inodes ? "df -i"

No, something prevented us from creating it.

This is before fping/hobbitping gets to run, so I don't think it will make any difference. Still, if you want to try it out just grab the latest snapshot and build it. Then you can copy the bbnet/hobbitping binary to your Hobbit server/bin/ directory - make sure it is suid-root. And change your FPING setting to point at "$BBHOME/bin/hobbitping"

No problem there.
If possible, I would like you to try out the bbtest-net program from the current snapshot - http://www.hswn.dk/beta/ . It's OK if you just copy the bbnet/bbtest-net tool from the snapshot over to your current Hobbit installation.
I've added a couple of lines of error output so it should log why it cannot create the output files in the bb-network.log file.
Regards, Henrik

Sorry, should have done an ls -la ...
they are all 0, all old from like February, probably when I did some testing, so they are nothing to worry about
If possible, I would like you to try out the bbtest-net program from the current snapshot
I will do that on Monday. Like I initially, it only happens once or twice a month, so it may be hard to catch. It will be good to have this in place once it does. I would rather fix this than go to hobbitping for now, so this should be good.
I'll let you know what the results are.
Thanks again, Jeff

Ok, I have compiled and put in the new bbtest-net file. Next time I get an fping bomb I'll look in the log file and let you know what it says.
Thanks again, Jeff
