Now, all went fine if both the sites are up. but problem starts when one
of the sites went down. In that case I got the "No output received from
server" on the hobbit web page after clicking on that service & it went
white. I need it to be red
Add a "~" in front of the "cont" tag, this will cause the content checks
to go red when http itself fails.
My concern is why the test become white instead of red, if it didn't
find the page only?
Because Hobbit tries not to generate too many alerts. If the webserver
itself is down, you may not want to alert all of the application
responsible people - you just want your junior sysadmin to restart
Apache.
2) Another thing I want to mention that initially I made two tests -
http1 & http11. When I removed
cont=http1;http://xyz.com:8080/index.html;First from bb-hosts file and
replaced http11 with http1 then old data is not refreshed!
In other words, you have a "http1" column which is now purple.
