I need to monitor the compute nodes of a cluster from my newly installed
hobbit server. All of the compute nodes live on their own private network
and the head node is the only node with an interface available to my hobbit
server. I remember when I was first looking at hobbit, reading that you
could setup a ³hobbit proxy² that could forward the the info from a private
network back to your hobbit server. I cant find this info anywhere in the
docs so if someone could point me in the correct direction I would
appreciate it.

Hi,

on the head node, use  ~hobbit/server/etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg to disable everything except for [bbproxy]

The following describes the options used with the bbproxy command:
http://hobbitmon.sourceforge.net/docs/man8/bbproxy.8.html

Hope that helps
