Memory test
list Steven Jenovai
I am still in the setup and testing phase with Hobbit. I am running 4.0.4 on a Suse 9.0 Linux box and monitoring about 125 hosts currently. I have run into a few issues, but overall, the installation has been extremely easy. I am trying to figure out how to get the memory column and associated graphs to show up. Do I need to add an external to do this, or is this functionality built into Hobbit? Thanks!

That's an add on script for the Big Brother client. If you want client data such as CPU load average, disk usage, memory, etc., you need to install the BB client software and the bb-memory script (along with whatever else you'd like to track) from deadcat.net. Tom

Hopefully someone can shed some light!
I am running xymon 4.2.3 on Solaris with all solaris clients. I have
notice that the memory test is calculating the amount of memory used is
incorrect.
I have a client system that has 64g of memory. It seems to display the
total right, but not what is used.
Used total
Physical 33313M 65312M 51%
When I look on the server, it's using about 5g of memory, not 33g.
Can someone give me a fix or tell me what script is doing this?

For Solaris Xymon computes memphysused = memphystotal - memphysfree "memphystotal" is what is reported as "Memory size: xxx Megabytes" in client data. You did not show us the value, so I assume it is 16160 M as in the web page. "memphysfree" is the fifth column of memory output in client data. So with the last data you gave us this gives: memphysused = 16160 - 2435600/1024 = 13781.48 MB This value rounded up gives 13782 MB with is what the web page says. Dominique
