I have very large file systems I need to monitor, and the standard hobbit/bb client monitors won't allow monitoring by bytes left, which is what I need.  The deadcat site has been down for the past 2 days, and I didn't see anything but wish requests for byte free monitoring.  I need this for AIX, does anyone have the bb disk client for bytes free they can send me, or give any quick pointers on how to do this natively in hobbit.  My hobbit server is 4.1.2p1.  At this point it appears I will have to roll my own byte free monitor.  I would appreciate any tips or code anyone could supply.

Regards,
Jim

I guess it doesn't help you right now, but the 4.2 release of Hobbit supports absolute-values monitoring of disks.
