Hobbit talk
list Tracy di Marco White
I gave a one hour in house seminar on using Hobbit at our university. I wrote up a lot of the text I wanted to say, and I have it on our web pages, if anyone is interested in it. Most of the URLs are inaccessible to people who don't work for us, but the text might be of some use. http://gendalia.public.iastate.edu/Hobbit.txt Tracy J.

Thanks, it was an interesting read. I am always curious to hear about how people are using Hobbit, because I have a strong feeling that there are quite a few ways of doing monitoring - some feature that seems important to me may be irrelevant in real life, and vice versa. E.g. I noticed you had written a custom script to check on inode-usage for filesystems. That might be something we should include in the standard Hobbit client (I don't think it would require much new code, it can probably be handled almost completely by the current filesystem code). Regards, Henrik

I agree. Although I've had very few instances of running out of inodes, when it happens...CRASH!!!

I'm using bb-inode.sh from Deadcat too, but it needs a 'df'' command which supports inode reporting, so it would be nice to have it in the Hobbit client. For those who think it's useless : $ df -hi /BB Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on /dev/sda4 2.4M 2.0M 371K 85% /BB ;-) -- Frédéric Mangeant Steria EDC Sophia-Antipolis
