Dan,
Thanks for the info. I just started my learning curve a few days ago and already have 32 servers monitored.
I am under the gun to prove Hobbit a better tool than Nagios and it looks to me like incorporating bb-central is all the ammo I will need. Very powerful if I can get it to work well.
Thanks again,
Tim
Austin, Texas.

bbrun.sh script and I don’t have one of those.
In hobbit, it would be hobbitlaunch.cfg that you would fiddle with. You
just create a new entry like this one I made for bbmrtg.pl:
[bbmrtg]
ENVFILE /var/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
NEEDS hobbitd
CMD $BBHOME/ext/bbmrtg.pl
LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bbmrtg.log
INTERVAL 5m
Do I just need to see what the format of that is? Am I barking up
the wrong tree here? I have 100 plus servers I need to monitor and I
really don’t want to deploy anything across all of them.
Ditto. I haven't played with bb-central under hobbit yet, but that's
coming up soon on my agenda. Any pointers you come up with are most
appreciated.
