and use the "bb" utility to send it off as a "data"

stores the output in a temporary file, and uses the "bb" utility from
a Big Brother client installation to send this datafile to Hobbit
in a "data" message:
#!/bin/sh
/foo/perlscript >/tmp/datafile
BBHOME=/usr/local/bbc
export BBHOME
. $BBHOME/etc/bbdef.sh
$BB $BBDISP "data $MACHINE.orasync
`cat /tmp/datafile`
"
Now the fun bit starts. Hobbit will automatically pass data-messages
to all tasks monitoring the "data" channel.
Can you tell me the difference between using "data" and "status"? The reason I ask is because I looked at the hobbitd/larrd/do_bea.c (because it was the smallest one), and I notice in the comments that script that feeds it is using "status" instead of "data".
