Can't override DISK defaults
list Ben Yarwood
Hi
I'm new to the list but have been using hobbit for around 4 years.
I'm having a problem overriding the default DISK settings in
hobbit-clients.cfg, no matter what I seem to add in to the file either
specifying the host name directly or using a regular expression.
All other changes to the hobbit-clients.cfg file are picked up immediately.
Extract from the file is below. We have upgraded to 4.2.2 today to see if
that would solve the problem but unfortunately not. I've also tried running
the bbcmd (output also below) and it always reports the defaults for disk.
(Prior to 4.2.2 being installed this produced a seg fault for the disk
test).
Hope someone can help.
Thanks in advance
Ben

Ben, I think ORDER is important -- your DEFAULTS section should go at the very end of the file. I think I read on this list that Hobbit quits on the first match, which is why the DEFAULTS must be at the end of the file. GLH
