SunOS zorn.math.purdue.edu 5.10 Generic_120011-14 sun4u sparc
SUNW,Sun-Fire-280R with Hobbit 4.2.0

I have been running hobbit v4.2.0 for several months now and just noticed
that procs heading nothing is being graphed. 

What is the graph at the bottom of the procs page suppose to show? I assume
it is the number of processes

Is there some parameter that needs to be set for this to graph?

Thanks

Robert

The procs is for monitoring processes that should be running and are not.
It does a ps listing and throws it on the server.  I see no graphs on procs.

Hummm,

 
If I click on the proc icon host I have a list of the processes that I am
monitoring, then I have a list of all the processes running(ps), and the at
the bottom I have

 
            Status unchanged in ..

            Status messages received..

            Client data available

            THEN AN EMPTY GRAPH

 
The question now is; am I even suppose to have this graph. Per Josh he does
not seem to have anything like this.

 
Thanks

Well I went to
http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh?HOST=voodoo.hswn.dk
<http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh?HOST=voodoo.hswn.dk&SERVICE=pro
cs> &SERVICE=procs and it is the same as mine. So I guess there is supposed
to be a blank graph a the bottom of the procs page.

 
Thanks for the help

Hmm, that's new.  Must be something with the latest snapshot, as my release
4.2.0 Hobbit install doesn't have that.

After a little more reading I found the following in hobbitclient.cfg under
PROC

 
#             The TRACK=id option causes the number of processes found to be
recorded

#             in an RRD file, with "id" as part of the filename. This graph
will then

#             appear on the "procs" page as well as on the "trends" page.
Note that

#             "id" must be unique among the processes tracked for each host.

 
I guess this must be a default as I have not used TRACK in any of my
hobbitclient.cfg entries.
