Is there no directory where bbclient information is gaterd.
Welcome to Hobbit. One thing Hobbit does very differently is that all
of the status-reports are kept only in memory - writing them to disk
is just too slow.
If you really must, you can enable the [bbstatus] task in
hobbitlaunch.cfg to get the file-based status-logs, but I really
cannot recommend doing that - and it is not necessary to do what you
want.
In bigbrother I hade exhangeservers sending in information about
private and public database sizes, the log file would contain f ex
green 20.4.2005 16:29:02
Exchange Database size check (GB):
&green PrivateDatabase: 12.99
&green PublicDatabase : 3.22
and I was able to graph that with larrd. I am able to let hobbit display
this graph but hobbit isn't getting the feed from the client.
Have a look at the hobbitd_larrd man-page, the "Custom RRD data"
section. It should be really simple to write a Hobbit RRD extension to
pick out those two data-items and have them tracked in an RRD file.
If you cannot work it out, write again and I'll give you a hand with
it.
BTW, the script you're using - is that something you wrote yourself or
picked up from Deadcat ? I do try to make Hobbit work "out of the box"
with some of the popular extensions from Deadcat, so if this is
something that would be useful to others then I can add the graphing
of this status-message into Hobbit.

Henrik
