Disk test getting wrong info
list Rob Munsch
Using hobbit 4.2, i have one host that keeps alternating between yellow
and green.
From the commandline on the host, df consistently gets
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 31004488 8095932 22908556 27% /
date.tbb:/home 83883516 70860176 13023340 85% /home
date.tbb:/shared 2097084 333308 1763776 16% /shared
(and df -l omits the latter two of course). However when the status
most recently went yellow, i saw on the hobbit status page:
- Filesystems NOT ok
Expected strings (Capacity and Mounted) not found in df output
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 4150856 2530912 1619944 0 36424 426328
-/+ buffers/cache: 2068160 2082696
Swap: 2097136 434284 1662852
Which looks a lot like memory info to me!
The last time it went yellow i saw a bunch of network interface stats.
I don't know how but every few checks the client seems to run the wrong
test for disk - or at least the wrong data is making it over in place of
df info. Anyone ever see this happen or know how it could..?

You may have a host on your network that advertises under the wrong hostname. Check the "Status message received from xx.yy.zz.aa" line in the web page, and see if it's the same on green and yellow conditions. -- Charles Goyard - user-98f9625a7a59@xymon.invalid - (+33) 1 45 38 01 31

That's an exciting thought. Of course, it has now remained green for over an hour, but i'll check on it next time it spazzes out on me, thanks. -- Rob Munsch Solutions For Progress IT www.solutionsforprogress.com

If you have two clients running on the host there will be a mess in the clientdata. So check if there are two clients running. Lars
