Folks,
I found a problem with the disk report handler in the post-RC6 patch -
it could get stuck in an infinite loop, due to a bug I introduced when
trying to add support for AS/400 disk reports. If you're bitten by
this, you'll have a hobbitd_larrd proces that is just spinning like
mad, burning cpu time but doing absolutely nothing (so no graph
updates).
I have updated the post-RC6 patch with a proper way of handling this.
If you applied the original post-RC6 patch, back it out with:
cd hobbit-4.0-RC6
patch -R -p1 </tmp/post-RC6.patch
Then apply the new one:
cd hobbit-4.0-RC6
patch -p1 </tmp/post-RC6-v2.patch
Then run "make clean; make", stop Hobbit and run "make install", then
start Hobbit again.
This also includes a couple of other fixes, including one where
removing a host from the bb-hosts file could cause it to get "stuck"
in Hobbit as purple, with no way of removing the host (except stopping
and starting Hobbit); and an improvement so you can list multiple
week-days in time-specifications for alerts, downtime etc.
Regards,
Henrik
