NetApp Test Frequency
list Francisco de la Torre
Hello all, I've installed the netapp.pl v1.21 script on my 4.2.3 server. The problem is I don't know how to configure for it to run every 5 minutes. Currently, the status is only updated after I manually run the script. Please let me know if you need any more info.

Take a look at the client home: $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/etc/clientlaunch.cfg Mimic what you see there. The entry generally looks like so: [fsstate] ENVFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/etc/hobbitclient.cfg CMD $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/ext/library.pl LOGFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/logs/library.log INTERVAL 3m (an example from one of my scripts) Also, hit the wiki: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/System_Monitoring_with_Hobbit Lots of yummy instructions there too. --j

Hi Jerald, The problems is there is no clientlaunch.cfg that resides on the netapp. How can I configure the server to run the test every 5 minutes, for example? Keep in mind, again, that no Hobbit software resides on the NetApp filer. On May 24th, you said:

Hi Francisco, I'm not familiar with the netapp.pl script. In cases where no client side software is installed on a device (netapp or some other proprietary OS dev) a script can be run from another system which does have hobbit software. In this example you installed the perl script on your server, so, is the perl script located under the servers client/ext dir? If so, then follow what Jerald states below. The action will be performed on where you installed the script. Example: /opt/hobbit/cgi-bin /opt/hobbit/cgi-secure /opt/hobbit/client /opt/hobbit/data /opt/hobbit/server /opt/hobbit/splat client/ext cputemp.sh my.sh na1.sh na2.sh nasload.sh client/etc clientlaunch.cfg hobbitclient.cfg localclient.cfg Regards, Tim

Ok, after extracting the archive and reading the documentation, I have an answer I think. First, I have to ask... Did you patch the Xymon/Hobbit source and then recompile with all the source modifications included in this product? If you read the README.FIRST document in the archive, it clearly outlines this process. Next, there is a README.netapp file that clearly outlines the installation pieces on the Xymon server side that leads you through the specific steps to get this thing running. How much of those steps have you done thus far? --- Jerald M. Sheets jr.

Hi Jerald, Yes, I followed the install instructions even though the patch is for RRD graphs exclusively.
