Hi,

I want to remove some purple tests from a host.  But the command ~/server/bin/bb 127.0.0.1 "drop server check"
is not doing what it should do.  The test is still displayed as purple.

So, can I do this manually?

The problem is I know how BigBrother is storing the information and how I can do some stuff manually (like update the html pages).  For hobbit, I can nog find such information.  Where is the status stored?  How can I manually update the html pages?

I fixed it by
1) stopping hobbit server
2) removing the files in ~hobbit/server/tmp and the files related to the check 
in ~hobbit/data/, 
3) starting hobbit server.

When I had this problem it was because I was not using the full name of the
server or I had not removed the test from bb-hosts and restarted hobbit.

Stef,

I had the same problem until I remember that I have to add the name as it
appears in the bb-hosts file.

In my case my names have the full domain so I have to enter
server.domain.com and not server.

In my case I was using the name like it appears in bb-hosts.
