Need info: National holidays
list Henrik Størner
One of the new things in Hobbit 4.3 is that it can handle alerts
happening on holidays. These will also show up on the "info"
column page.
To make this easy, I need some information about the holidays in
each country.
I already have code to handle the Christian holidays (Easter, Whit
Monday, Christmas) - e.g. these are the holidays I have listed in my
"common" section for 2008:
New Year 01/01
Good Friday 21/03
Easter Monday 24/03
Ascension Day 01/05
Whit Monday 12/05
Christmas Eve 24/12
Christmas Day 25/12
New Year's Eve 31/12
I also have specific entries for the US, Germany and Denmark - see
http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit-cgi/viewconf.sh?holidays for the current
configuration.
So if you're from France, Italy, Australia, Japan or some other country
and you would like to have Hobbit pre-loaded with your national
holidays, send me a list of which days are holidays. If you can do it in
the form of the configuration file it would be brilliant, but if not
then just describe to me what days should be included.
(Please post them to the list - and DONT send it if it has already
been posted by someone else, thanks!)

Henrik, Did you take a look at the Google Calendars per Rob's suggestion? I'd think it would be easiest to look at the agenda for those calendars rather then to reinvent the wheel picking everyone's brain. I know that I can't even list half of the holidays celebrated here in the States without looking it up. Just a suggestion!

Hi Henrik As the saying goes, "There's always one, isn't there?" In Australia the holidays are all different, depending on what state you are in, and differ from year to year, depending on expedience. For instance all states celebrate the queen's birthday (Queen Elizabeth of Great Britain, that is), but on different days. For instance, Northern Territory it was on the 11 Jun last year, 9 Jun this year, and 8 Jun next year. In Western Australia, the same holiday was celebrated on 1 Oct last year, 29 Sep this year, and 28 Sep next year. It gets very ugly, but I think it's done to give us long weekends during the best weather periods. The official holiday listings for the 7 states can be found here Northern Territory http://www.ocpe.nt.gov.au/legislation/holidays Western Australia http://www.docep.wa.gov.au/lr/LabourRelations/Content/Wages%20and%20Cond itions/Public%20Holidays/Public_Holidays.html New South Wales http://www.industrialrelations.nsw.gov.au/holidays/index.html Queensland http://www.wageline.qld.gov.au/holidayslist/index.html South Australia http://www.safework.sa.gov.au/show_page.jsp?id=2483 Tasmania http://www.wst.tas.gov.au/employment_info/public_holidays Victoria http://www.vic.gov.au/VictoriaOnline?action=content&id=4383&image_id=371 &pageTitle=Victorian+Public+Holiday+Dates&track=Government+Entry+Point+f or+Victorians&nav=suppnav Good luck trying to figure out that mess.

Hi Josh, I understand Henrik's request as an attempt to make things easier for us system admins. We have holidays where we do not want to be interrupted by an urgent message from the Hobbit monitor. Those are the holidays that we want Hobbit Monitor to recognize in the future versions. We would not want to put in those holidays that are only for some sysadmins in that country, or we would risk that an urgent message would not be sent to the corresponding sysadmin. This could happen if a day is listed as a holiday, while it in fact, is not a holiday (for an area or religion). Those kind of holidays are best left out of the list. Then the local sysadmin can put them in or enable them. That is my view of how to narrow down the holidays, that we really should list.

Hello there and happy new year to all of you ! actually, I'm playing with jMeter to load my platform. I got 2x1000 virtual users connecting to my 2 web servers. Thus, I got almost 1000 VU on each Apache server. I'm looking at my hobbit graphs now and see surprising values. On my graphs, I have 1.0 request/sec (apache2 graph) and 0.005 of cpu utilization (apache3 graph) ! So I'm just asking how to read results from apache 2 server-status info ? It looks like values are divided by 1000, am I wrong ? Is it a normal behaviour ? If you are using a particular script for your Apache performance, please let me (and us) know :) Bye !
