Hi All

Has anyone used bb-disk_by_fs.sh with BB client? I am trying to find out
how it will work with HOBBIT?

There are few things I am concern about.

1. How will I manage alerts per partition which this script offers?
2. How will the graph work?

Thanks for any feedbacks. I guess I could always try it myself on a test
system if there is no feedback already.

I had a quick look at it
(http://www.deadcat.net/viewfile.php?fileid=128) and from what I can
see it generates a separate column per filesystem, with a column-name
that is defined in the modified bb-dftab file it uses.

E.g. the bb-dftab has entries of the form
    host:partition:WARN:PANIC:COLNAME
so one entry could be
    oracle1.foo.com:/oracle/dbdata:97:99:disk_db

So for alerts, you just setup alert rules using "SERVICE=disk_db" as
for any other kind of alert-configuration.

For the graphs, you must tell Hobbit that the "disk_db" status is
really a "disk" type of status. This is done with the LARRDS setting
in hobbitserver.cfg. Add "disk_db:disk" (you must restart Hobbit after
this) and it should pickup those data and put them in a disk-type RRD
automatically.

Where exactly in the hobbitserver.cfg file do you define this? Is it in
about line 143?
