Hi all,

I'm in the process of migrating from the bbclient to the xymon/hobbit client
and everything is pretty straight forward so far. However when i'm using the client
i'm seeing some tests that are showing as white "files, ports, procs" which isn't a
bad thing but i'd like to turn it off completely.

Is the only way of doing it with using: NOCOLUMNS:files,ports,procs  ?
I have hundreds of hosts to monitor and having to specify that for each
and every host seems very clunky so i'm guessing i missed something
obvious that allows me to disable it globally for all hosts.

Any ideas?

Regards,
Cami

Hi !

You can use the default-option

in bb-hosts for a hole page ..

e.g.

page server Server
0.0.0.0 .default. # NOCOLUMNS:files,ports,procs

or you configure it in hobbitserver.cfg for bbgen

http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit/help/manpages/man1/bbgen.1.html

COLUMN SELECTION OPTIONS
These options affect which columns (tests) are included in the webpages generated by bbgen.

--ignorecolumns=test[,test]
The given columns will be completely ignored by bbgen when generating webpages. Can be used to generate reports where you eliminate some of the more noisy tests, like "msgs".


cheers,
