hobbit-clients.cfg - Handling FILE rules
list Allan Spencer
Heya,
Just been playing around with doing some FILE monitoring and having issues with its processing order or its ignoring a host I want a different setting for. Originally I defined the FILE checks in the default section with the host1.acme.com above it but it wasn't working so I tried setting a HOST=* one and putting it under there but I still get the same thing. I have used it in the past for defining different proc checks for hosts, different loads, and different disk usage on partitions but never for FILE before.
Basically want host1.acme.com to either not care about files at all or make them 755 and all other hosts to be 644 for gcc and make (non exec)
Can someone point me in the direction of what I might be doing wrong as I THINK what I'm doing is right.
Below is the config that I'm currently using. I am able to define other checks under host1.acme.com and they work fine.
HOST=host1.acme.com
FILE /usr/bin/make MODE=755
FILE /usr/bin/gcc MODE=755
HOST=*
PROC ntpd
PROC cron
FILE /usr/bin/make MODE=644
FILE /usr/bin/gcc MODE=644
DEFAULT
# These are the built-in defaults.
UP 15m
CLOCK 60
LOAD 5.0 10.0
DISK * 90 95
MEMPHYS 100 101
MEMSWAP 65 80
MEMACT 90 97

If you put the Host=* entries in the DEFAULT section, I believe that should of worked. But anyways the HOST=* definition is wrong, I think it needs to be HOST=%.*.
