Subject: RE: [hobbit] monitor files,log msgs,

 
Your client-local.cfg syntax is wrong.  client-local tells hobbit what
to upload, hobbit-client tells Hobbit how to use what it uploaded.  You
have the two files configured the same, which is wrong.  Also, you don't
need anything on the client side if you're running Hobbit in the typical
manner.  The client-local.cfg data is downloaded from the server to the
client automatically.

 
Try something more like this:

 
Client-local.cfg

[nj1db200pt]

file:/home/monitor/test

file:/var/log/

log:/var/adm/messages:4096

The default copies of all these files are commented heavily at the top
showing all this syntax.

it outputs

Your client-local.cfg syntax is wrong.  client-local tells hobbit what
to upload, hobbit-client tells Hobbit how to use what it uploaded.  You
have the two files configured the same, which is wrong.  Also, you don't
need anything on the client side if you're running Hobbit in the typical
manner.  The client-local.cfg data is downloaded from the server to the
client automatically.

 
Try something more like this:

The default copies of all these files are commented heavily at the top

I'm able to get them to work on the Hobbit server itself, but I can't seem
to figure out how to get the same information from the clients.  I installed
the Hobbit client from the package and the servers see each other.  This is
what is in the hobbit-clients.cfg file:

All the above files are in the location listed.  I'm guessing that they
don't show up because of the settings listed.


This is what is in the "client-local.cfg" file (as well as the defaults):


[wfs-bkp01-atl]

file:/var/log/


Both of the above files are located on the Hobbit server.  If I read the
files right on the client side there is not anything that I need to
configure.  I could be wrong about this.

I believe your problem is that the configuration reads top to bottom.
Your default configuration catches the hosts before your specified
configuration below the default.  Try switching the two around.
