Oh, whoops, my apologies. I not big into HPUX, so I wasn't aware that
11 != 11.11, I thought they were mostly the same. On a related note, I
know that I was not able to get rdist to compile on this sucker.
What I ended up doing for a few things on my HPUX machine was scp'ing,
which, fortunately, still works.

 I complete lost my hobbit server for a day. Is there any work done
on setting up fail over servers?

 The simplest solution: Setup a server identical to your Hobbit server,
and rsync the server/etc/ and data/{hist,rrd,tmp} periodically from
your main server. If the main server dies, start Hobbit on the spare
box.


 Well no rsync for hp-ux 11. I might be able to rcp/scp . I don't have
another HP set up as a server identical to my Hobbit server.

 rsync is reasonably portable. If you could compile Hobbit on HP-UX,
I'd think you could also compile rsync.


Yes, rsync _should_ compile on hp-ux, but I can't confirm. However, I
use the depot package from here:

http://gatekeep.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/Networking/Admin/rsync-2.6.6/

I am running:

HP-UX presap B.11.11 U 9000/785

Once you have it installed all you'd need to do is sync the important
files (bb-hosts, etc) like Henrik said. I use a combination of rdist
and rsync to push my bb/hobbit configuration around to 90+
hosts(linux, solaris, hpux, bsd), and it works well.
