You only need to restart Hobbit if you modify the hobbitserver.cfg
file. All other configuration changes will be picked up automatically
without any restart.
2. According to FAQ, it says after a network test is failed,
it will retry every 1 minute until 30 minutes later.
Does the failure means red? If so, how about yellow?
"Failed" means anything that is not green: Red, yellow or
clear.
3. Is is possible to postpone some network tests after the
target machine is up for 5 minutes or so?
No.
4. Is it possible to generate PDF reports? I saw it on demo site
but it seems malfunction.
Oops, didn't mean to leave that in there. It was a completely
separate tool - nothing to do with Hobbit - that I tried using.
http://www.rustyparts.com/pdf.php if you're interested.
Hobbit doesn't generate PDF reports, but you can generate HTML
reports and use some tool to convert them to PDF; or make your
own reports from the data you get from the CSV file.
