There's a new release-candidate available at http://www.hswn.dk/beta/
Yay, glad to get my hands on this one. ;)
* Using the "apache" test on a host with no HTTP tests now
works, and does not result in a bogus http column.
I can confirm that this works now. Thanks.
* A new reporting option lets you save the availability data
in a comma-separated file, for import to spreadsheets.
Is this cgi-bi/bb-csvinfo.sh? I have to manually edit the menu to add it, huh?
* Updates of RRD files now use the RRDtool "template" facility
to map data-values to the correct RRD datasets. This should solve the problem with migrating of vmstat data from several
systems, including AIX.
If I understand this correctly, this could help me get rid of 2 local patches that I maintain to keep RRD data consistent between my inconsistent legacy systems. Is its use transparent or something I can tap into? Right now I have to force some column re-ordering in a couple of the hobbitd/larrd/do_xxx routines to make things work, and editing the source files has been the easiest & most consistent way to do it.
* A couple of log files have moved to /var/log/hobbit: The
nkstatus.log file (from the "server/" directory); and the acklog and notifications.log files (from the data/acks
directory).
FYI to users going from older hobbit, you may want to copy over the contents of these files into these new locations, otherwise you could lose a lot of "history" in these areas (not to mention any current acks that are in effect when you apply the RC2 upgrade).
