Hobbit HTML issue

I am wondering if there is a way to make the name of the host in the bb-hosts file a link for http, telnet or ssh. Or if there is another way of getting something like that. Josh

We are using the notes file in the server/www/notes directory to hyperlink to the system in our CMDB the contents of the notes files is <html> <head> <title>sodn035u</title> </head> <frameset> <frame src="http://servicedesk/ncm/index.php?N=sodn035u">; </frameset> </html> which will open the corresponding webpage of the CMDB Regards, Bert Klomp

Are you saving that file as the name of the host in the bb-hosts file?

We actually modified the source for hobbit to do that for us. We have over 500 firewalls with a common naming scheme, so anything that starts with certain characters makes the host name a link to https://ip-address. But it did require some hacking. If that sounds appealing, I'll see about getting you a patch listing. stewart

We've configured bbgen to make the hostname a link to our CMDB: CMD bbgen $BBGENOPTS --report --wml --rss --nopropyellow=updates,conn --docurl=http://sanity/hardware/search?criteria=hostname&search_string=%s Regards, Buchan

yes, correct. The files are automatically created from the database, so easy to maintain. Regards, Bert

We use TWiki for documentation and changed the settings: /home/users/hobbit/server/etc # grep -i twiki * hobbitlaunch.cfg: CMD bbgen $BBGENOPTS --report --docurl=/twiki/bin/view/Hobbit/DeviceLink%s?cover=print hobbitserver.cfg:COLUMNDOCURL="/twiki/bin/view/Hobbit/CheckLink%s?cover=print" If you click on a link that has no TWiki page, you can create a new one. All pages starting with DeviceLink are documentation about the hosts in hobbit. All pages starting with CheckLink are documentation about the checks in hobbit. It is easy to create a TWiki page that creates an overview off all documentation. Stef

We do a similar thing to imbed general links and host specific links. I
have a script which takes in an ASCII file and creates notes pages for a
list of servers.
