Greetings,
Recently I have been getting the following error messages in my hobbitd
section about my proc column for one of my hosts:
Oversize data/client msg from [IP Address] truncated (n=760399, limit
524288)
First line: [Hostname]|hp-ux|hp-ux
Oversize status msg from [IP Address] for [Hostname]:ports truncated
(n=514197, limit=262144)
Yes - this is due to the client sending status messages that are too large
for the server to accept. The default limit for status messages is 256K
and clients is 512K; both are not large enough.
You can control this setting by adding values for
MAXMSG_CLIENT
MAXMSG_STATUS
into the hobbitserver.cfg config file. In my config I have
MAXMSG_CLIENT="2097152"
MAXMSG_STATUS="2097152"
This may be too large for you though so you should perhaps try smaller
values first
Cheers
Iain
Any thoughts??
Thanks,
