After a little more reading I found the following in hobbitclient.cfg under
PROC
# The TRACK=id option causes the number of processes found to be
recorded
# in an RRD file, with "id" as part of the filename. This graph
will then
# appear on the "procs" page as well as on the "trends" page.
Note that
# "id" must be unique among the processes tracked for each host.
I guess this must be a default as I have not used TRACK in any of my
hobbitclient.cfg entries.

Hmm, that's new. Must be something with the latest snapshot, as my release
4.2.0 Hobbit install doesn't have that.

to be a blank graph a the bottom of the procs page.
Thanks for the help

Hummm,
If I click on the proc icon host I have a list of the processes that I am
monitoring, then I have a list of all the processes running(ps), and the at
the bottom I have
Status unchanged in ..
Status messages received..
Client data available
THEN AN EMPTY GRAPH
The question now is; am I even suppose to have this graph. Per Josh he does
not seem to have anything like this.
Thanks
Robert

The procs is for monitoring processes that should be running and are not.
It does a ps listing and throws it on the server. I see no graphs on procs.

SUNW,Sun-Fire-280R with Hobbit 4.2.0
I have been running hobbit v4.2.0 for several months now and just noticed
that procs heading nothing is being graphed.
What is the graph at the bottom of the procs page suppose to show? I assume
it is the number of processes
Is there some parameter that needs to be set for this to graph?
Thanks
Robert
