Aix client script

Hi, 
I'd like to create an aix client script for hobbit
(hobbitclient-aix.sh). 
So I copied the script from sunOS and replaced the command with the aix
commands. (prtconf also exists but the result isn't the same). 
It looks like I missed something, as the tests becomes purple when I
stop the bb client. 
I also have such messages in the hobbitclient.log file : Usage: ~hobbit/client/bin/bb [--debug]
[--proxy=http://ip.of.the.proxy:port/] RECIPIENT DATA
  RECIPIENT: IP-address, hostname or URL
  DATA: Message to send, or "-" to read from stdin

Any idea ? Nicolas Figaro

The client-side script alone is not enough for Hobbit - it needs an update on the Hobbit server to recognize and handle the data sent by the client.

If you could send me your script and the output it generates - there might be a "msg.txt" file in the client/tmp/ directory you
can just pick up - I can probably put it into Hobbit very quickly.

Is this AIX 4 or 5 ? And do you know if there's any difference in
the output from the commands between these two ?


Regards,
Henrik

prtconf on Solaris is used to pick up the amount of RAM installed.

For AIX your script should include this:

[bootinfo]
bootinfo -r
[freemem]
vmstat 1 2
[pstat]
pstat -s

which runs the bootinfo tool to determine the amount of RAM installed,
vmstat to determine the amount of free RAM, and pstat to determine the
swap statistics. (I don't know one bit about AIX, but this is what the
bb-memory add-on uses).

If the other information provided by "bootinfo" might be useful, you
can leave out the "-r" option as long as the RAM size is included in
the output.

Henrik

If you need any help with any of the AIX stuff, I'd be glad to help out
with it.
