Hi,

im monitoring the filesystems on an AIX 5.3 server with the hobbit-client
4.2.0... when i try to "configure" the DISK parameters for this client on in
the hobbit-clients.cfg file (server side) it doesn't work...

im trying to change the yellow / red status for one filesystem see below:

HOST=testserver
     DISK /save IGNORE
     DISK /test/archiv 20 30


I also tried doing this:

DISK %^/save* IGNORE  --> this was mentioned in one old post as a solution
for the IGNORE issues... but it doesn't work for me. The other issue with
the non-standard threshold ( DISK /test/archiv 20 30 ) also is a big problem
to me...


I really don't know what im missing here... I tried many diferent
parameters, but none worked. Can someone help me pls?

Thx,
Cayo

1) "testsever" must exactly match the hostname of the client data (~/client/tmp/msg.testserver.txt).
2) Make sure to place your rules *before* the DEFAULT settings.

Hi Dominique,

1) im sure it is the same, because i can monitor the processes through this
(PROC sshd, ...) ... and it works!

2) well, in the hobbit-clients.cfg i tried to put the "HOST" entries after
the "DEFAULT" entries, but it didn't help.

still not working...

oh, my fault... now the IGNORE function is working... i will test the
threshold and post the final conclusion.
