Can any body let me know, the time duration which hobbit will wait to
change status to purple if client is not reporting data? And can we
customize this time duration? If so please let me know the configuration
where it can be done.

Hi,

30 min by default.
could be changed individually - see status LIVETIME in man page for bb
command.
The LIFETIME defines how long this status is valid after being received by
the Hobbit server. The default is 30 minutes, but you can set any period
you like. E.g. for a custom test that runs once an hour, you will want to
set this to at least 60 minutes - otherwise the status will go purple after
30 minutes. It is a good idea to set the LIFETIME to sligtly more than the
interval between your tests, to allow for variations in the time it takes
your test to complete. The LIFETIME is in minutes, unless you add an
"h" (hours), "d" (days) or "w" (weeks) immediately after the number, e.g.
"status+5h" for a status that is valid for 5 hours.

Hi all,

I'd like to ask whether this is a known issue - and how it can be fixed?

We have recently applied resource control (physical and swap mem capped) to some of our non-global Solaris zones - unfortunately now the Xymon clients are reporting a memory usage as follows in the non-global zones:

emory              Used       Total  Percentage
red Physical     4294961394M       4096M 4294967152%
green Swap                392M       8191M          4%

Obviously wrong!! :)

How does Xymon collect memory stats as I can't see how it is getting this figure - most odd. If anyone has any ideas on a solution to this it would be most appreciated :)

Cheers
James
