I've been looking through the archives at the sample server side module
Henrick showed us
(http://www.hswn.dk/hobbiton/2007/01/msg00487.html) I'm
just curious if anyone knows how to send data from the client side to the
server the same way the standard hobbit client tests do, looking at bb I'm
guessing either bb data or bb client, but when I run bb <hobbitIP> "client
<hostname>.<os>" nothing happens and the man pages don't mention how to
actually send the data etc.
I have a Hobbit client install running a BigIP check. In
client/etc/clientlaunch.cfg:
[bigip-v4]
ENVFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/etc/hobbitclient.cfg
CMD $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/ext/bigip/bigip3.sh
LOGFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/logs/hobbitclient.log
INTERVAL 5m
After doing what it needs to do to get the status, the script sends
off a status message to the server like this:
MACHINE=`echo $NAME | sed -e 's/\./,/g'`
MESSAGE="status $MACHINE.$TEST $COLOR `date`<P><font size=+2>The
$BIGIP BigIP says: $NAME $TEST is $STATE</font>"
$BB $BBDISP $MESSAGE
Is that what you're looking for??
