Hobbit_perl_client 1.13 🔗 link

New version is out with 3 nice new features:
1) DB2 connection and tablespace report.
2) Report of what the script did in a column called like the script on
the host where the script is running (all errors and warning will also
be reported here).
3) Custom query engine to write your own query (If you want to share
them you can put them on the hobbit_perl_client forum on sourceforge or
send them to me and I'll try to put them there for everyone to use).

As always it can be downloaded
http://sourceforge.net/projects/hobbit-perl-cl/ or from
http://www.deadcat.net 

The custom query engine in a bit experimental so be sure to try your
query and check all the parameters. The documentation is not so good
but you can find how it work in the example ini files (I think I'll
finish to write some documentation before starting to put more
functionality into the scripts :D) so If you need any info feel free to
contact me via mail/forum.

Changes to this version:

Hobbit_fd_lib.pm 1.13 (general library)
- now the scripts will send a status report to hobbit into a column on
the server
  where the scripts are running to do a summary of what was done (total
and host
  running time, total and color/event of messages sent, total host
checked 
  and test done for each host, a list of warning and error  got from the
scripts).
  For dbcheck if you use the fast/slow kind of check you will have 2
columns 
  one called dbcheck_fast and one dbcheck_slow.
- new general (for the 3 scripts) option warningout that can be equal to
"log", 
  "send", "both" and will influence how warning are treated. If it's
"log" it will
  simply out the warning to the hobbit log file, "send" will send the
warning into
  the status report of the test, "both" will do both the things (check
ini 
files to see hot this work).

Hello,

just for those who don't want some FS types on AIX, you could add this 
line to your client 'bin/hobbitclient-aix.sh'

# The sed stuff is to make sure lines are not split into two.
df -Ik `lsfs -v jfs | awk '{print $1}' | sed -e '1d'` | sed -e '/^[^ ][^  
]*$/{
N
s/[     ]*\n[   ]*/ /
}'

I'm using Clearcase on AIX and don't want to see all these vob files in my 
df output :)
Sincerly,

Thomas
