Hello,

 
1. How do I put multiple  my $MRTGCFG = ''cfgfile.cfg' in the bbmrtg-pl
? If I out same My $mrtfcfg field more than 2 times it takes the last
cfg file only.... 

2. How do I increast the no of network connection for hobbit? I have
some 150 servers to monitor....how to increase the no of pids.

 
Regards

Soumya

You don't.  If the cfg files all have the same workdir, then just make a
wrapper file like:
bbmrtg.cfg
Include: /var/mrtg/internal/cfgfile.cfg
Include: /var/mrtg/public/cfgfile.cfg
Include: /var/mrtg/customers/cfgfile.cfg

then set $MRTGCFG to bbmrtg.cfg

My "mrtg.cfg" file has about 300 Include: statements, and I generate the
whole thing on the fly

As you would expect perl to do.

The other option is to run multiple instances of bbmrtg.pl.  You would
have several stanzas in hobbitlaunch.cfg, one for each copy of bbmrtg.pl

You dont. Hobbit is designed for large networks, you can easily
monitor a few thousand hosts. No tweaking required.
