If they are not updated, they should disappear automatically after 30 minutes. You can force it to be dropped with ~/server/bin/bb "drop summary.COLUMN" Henrik

Kevin, Do you really think anyone looks at your disclaimer?. You are just unnecessarily filling up the mailing list with 'garbage'. I would understand if it were an email to one/all of your employees. But outside that jurisdiction it is pretty much useless. I am sure lot of people here will agree with me. Please avoid using disclaimers in mailing list. Avoid disclaimers: http://www.goldmark.org/jeff/stupid-disclaimers

This is a public mailing list and disclaimers are just abusing it. I shared my view with rest. This is not a complain

Don't be so sure for everyone. My goal is to stop the abuse, not to dribble as you put it

Sounds like Asif is on a tear today. (yay, no top-post) While I have no control over work's lame disclaimer, I'd rather the messages be in gmail for nice search/archiving. Although I can't say the disclaimers bother me much. At this point I'm used to ignoring them. (hipaa-insanity seemed to boost disclaimer usage) Are there any official guidelines for this list or just the usual public-listserv-consensus? Other lists I'm on seem to be top-quote only. Bottom quoting will only confuse them.. -r

I agree and would disable the disclaimer at work if I had the opportunity. They're fairly useless and the sheer length of them can be excessive.

I wouldn't doubt it. Perhaps Henrik can offer his 0.02c on the subject so we have an official policy for usage of his list. (while I agree in concept, I don't have the time to really care enough to get agitated about it.) -r

Hello fellow hobbiters, Currently I'm running Hobbit 4.0.2 on a Solaris 9 platform (Host X) and I'm also running BB (Host Y), using the BBRELAY-option (BBRELAY:X.domain.name). On the Hobbit Host X, I've disabled bbnet to prevent to perform a double netwerk check (Both BB *and* Hobbit; too much); bbnet is blue dotted. Then everything works seems to work fine, but... On host Y, there are 7 so called Remote Status Displays (RSD) and each time I refresh the browser, I see all 7 RSD. On Hobbit host X however, a refresh make some RSD disappear!? After waiting some time, and the normal refresh, the page is showing the normal stuff again, so finally it ressembles the BB display. But, it seems to me the RSD are not sticky. Is there some explanation for this behaviour? Thanks in advance, Peter

RSD's are deleted automatically if they haven't been updated. A normal test would go purple, but RSD's are just silently dropped. They are also not saved across a restart of the Hobbit daemon, so if you do a restart then they'll disappear - until an update arrives and then they'll re-appear. I've had a couple of reports that the HEARTBEAT setting in hobbitlaunch.cfg triggers too frequently, causing a restart of the Hobbit daemon - this will cause your RSD's to disappear. If that is the case, you should see messages in the /var/log/hobbit/hobbitlaunch.log file about this - could you check if there is any mention of "heartbeat lost" in that file ? You can try and just remove the "HEARTBEAT" line from hobbitlaunch.cfg (the heartbeat-thing is a kludge, really - it should not be needed). Henrik

Hi, I have a central hobbit server running in my office and a second one in our office in Cologne. I've created a summary line in the bb-hosts in Cologne and I get the Remote Status Display here on the web site of my central server, so far everything works fine. If somethings happens in Cologne I can only see it in the chapter "Remote Status Display" of my central hobbit server. But is there a possibility to change the status color of the web site of my central hobbit server in case of an problem in Cologne, too? Regards Chris -- Dipl. Ing.

On your central hobbit server, make sure you have the SUMMARY_SET_BKG="TRUE" setting in hobbitserver.cfg, then the summary color will affect the overall color of your top-level webpage. Regards, Henrik
