Hi All,

Can anyone tell me how to get rid of "ports", "procs" and "files" column on the hobbit-server?

Thanks...

Hi dns,

Have a read of the man page for bb-hosts. It explains how to configure the
layout of the web server pages including which columns to display or
exclude... Have a look at the group-except tag

Cheers

Phil

You can use the group-except directive in the bb-hosts file. eg:

group-except ports|procs|files My Servers
192.168.0.1	serverone.example.com # ...
192.168.0.2	servertwo.example.com # ...

This question can be solved in different methods. It all depends on the reason why you want ports, procs, & files removed. It would help us to answer your question, if you provide this information on your original query:

Senario 1: You have not set thresholds for these tests, thus you have alot of clear statuses that you want to not be displayed.
Answer: Edit server/etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg, scroll down to the [clientdata] section, add "--no-clear-files --no-clear-ports --no-clear-files". Note, if these clear statuses already show, after adding that setting you will need to drop those tests or they will go purple.

Senario 2:For a particular subset of servers, you do not want these tests to be processed or shown.
Answer: Use the bbtag "NOCOLUMNS:files,ports,procs" in the server/etc/bb-hosts file, to the particular set of servers. The same Note above applies.
 Senario 3: You want to display the device on a page, but want to limit what tests are displayed.
Answer: the previous replies outlined the procedure.
