First I have to say Hobbit is a great tool.  I am just testing with it
and it seems to provide great features.
 
Should the "WithPeak" option work if I am using mrtg with LogFormat:
rrdtool ?  It seems to just ignore this option for me.
 
thanks
paul

I have been using Hobbit for awhile, but I still have all my old bb19
clients installed and reporting to the Hobbit server.  I need to monitor
memory for a new system so I thought I would try the Hobbit client this time
around.  The package is listed as this:
 
 hobbit-client_4.1.2p1-1_sparc.deb 

Why does the Sparc package have a .deb file extension?  How can I had a
Debian package to a Solaris system?  Is there another way to monitor memory
on a system without using the new Hobbit client?

Thanks

Because it's a package for Debian GNU/Linux running on Sun SPARC hardware.
How can I had a Debian package to a Solaris system?
You cannot. But you can easily build the Hobbit client for Solaris.
Grab the Hobbit sources, configure with "./configure --client" and
run "make; make install"

I just don't provide a pre-built package for Solaris. My production
systems happen to run Linux, even though the hardware is from Sun.

The deadcat bb_memory add-on still works for the BB client.

I run Debian on a Sparc (Sun Ultra-10), although I have never tried the 
Hobbit install on Debian Sparc.
