If you do it in advance, yes. Ie. define DOWNTIME settings for the hosts covering your regular outages (e.g. the scheduled reboot every Saturday morning), or disable the host/service when doing maintenance. Periods with a "blue" (disabled) status are not included in the availability calculations. Regards, Henrik

Hello,
I'm currently migrating to hobbit 4.2. All is going ok but I notice something strange under solaris (6->10)! Under the cpu column, I didn't get any output, only load graph. I don't understand because it's working fine with previous version of the client (4.1.2p1). I'm looking at the hobbitclient-sunos.sh and find these lines :
# $TOP must be set, the install utility should do that for us if it exists.
if test "$TOP" != ""
then
if test -x "$TOP"
then
echo "[top]"
$TOP -b 20
fi
fi
So, I'm opening the etc/hobbitclient.cfg and have this variable :
TOP="/usr/bin/prstat -can 20 1 1"
I'm launching this command from a console and it works perfectly as you can see :
root at psa129:/ # /usr/bin/prstat -can 20 1 1

Under my cpu test on the hobbit display I just have this line : "System clock is 0 seconds off"
Is it the new behaviour for this test or something is wrong on my configuration ? What does "System clock is 0 seconds off" mean ?
Once again, thanks for all your great work !

I noticed this problem too. I changed the entry for TOP in hobbitclient-sunos.sh to:
▸
# $TOP must be set, the install utility should do that for us if it exists.
if test "$TOP" != ""
then
if [ `expr "$TOP" : "/usr/bin/prstat"` -ne 0 ]
then
echo "[top]"
$TOP
elif test -x "$TOP"
then
echo "[top]"
$TOP -b 20
fi

The problem seems to be that $TOP is set to "/usr/bin/prstat -can 20 1 1"
And this causes the if statement to fail { if test -x "$TOP"}
I made a change to hobbitclient.cfg and hobbitserver.cfg so that:
TOP="/usr/bin/prstat"
TOPARGS="-can 20 1 1"
And then changed hobbitclient-sunos.sh to:
if test "$TOP" != ""
then
if test -x "$TOP"
then
echo "[top]"
# $TOP -b 40
$TOP $TOPARGS
fi
fi
And this works well except the hobbit server does not get a cpu load graph.
It only gets a graph if there is not [top] line in the data set

It's a bug in the hobbitclient-sunos script. There's a patch available on http://www.hswn.dk/hobbitsw/patches/ now.
What does "System clock is 0 seconds off" mean ?
It means the client's system clock is in sync with the clock on the server. It's a rough measure of how well your hosts are synchronized against a common time-source. You can use the CLOCK setting in hobbit-clients.cfg to warn you if a host clock drifts too far from the norm. Regards, Henrik

A substract and a comparison. It's public domain :). It just compares the hobbit server time against the client time, and gives a error if the difference is too big. It lets one drop deadcat's bb-ntp.sh for most hosts. -- Charles Goyard - user-98f9625a7a59@xymon.invalid - (+33) 1 45 38 01 31 (lunch together today ?)
