Hi, I was looking for information about this issue but, apparently there
is not :-( 

 
I'm running hobbit 4.2 using hobbitping poll 12 hosts.

Some of those hosts are behind a 2Mbps link, and almost all the time
that link is 3% busy. The rest of the hosts are in the same LAN as the
hobbit server.

 
I need to poll 12 hosts within 20 seconds intervals, but it take 30
seconds the complete process. I read that hobbitping is fastest than
fping, and there is some Fping examples that show that 12 hosts would be
ping in 20 seconds without any problem.

 
I have changed the bbnet interval in the hobbitlaunch.cfg to 20 (or
less, just to try) but here is what the log shows
(/var/log/hobbit/bb-network.log):

If any have any recommendation, or work around, how I can poll this

Thanks in advance!!

Well after a few days I found the problem (I'm a bit new on hobbit yet),
I set a -debug option in [bbnet] in the hobbitlaunch.cfg:


[bbnet]

        ENVFILE /usr/local/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg

        NEEDS hobbitd

        CMD bbtest-net --report --ping --checkresponse --report --debug

        LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bb-network.log


And I checked the logs for something, and there was 30 seconds of DNS
timeout trying to resolve a hostname, that it wasn't on the dns. 30
seconds is the default timeout for DNS resolution.


I changed the dns timeout to 2 seconds and now is working like a charm
:D


Cheers

Javier!!
