Re: [hobbit] unable to monitor nfs with BB extension script

I resolved the "meta" issue with a simple change to the script to redirect STDERR to STDOUT when doing /usr/sbin/metahs -i.

Sorry for the delay in checking back, was off on other tasks for a while. I resolved the "nfs" script in a slightly different way. I noticed that $DF was being changed and $BBOSTYPE was not set the same when the BB extension script ran. So I changed the xymon bb-nfs-client.sh to define and use DFK="/bin/df -k" .
On a different issue, this one relates to the "meta" extension script. I have it working and displaying correct results within the web page, but it curiously writes "metahs: ftp04: no hotspare pools found" to the meta log each time it executes. Any ideas why?

Bill,

I had exactly the same issue.
Defining the following variables within the bb-nfs-client.sh script itself is what worked for me. 

PING="/usr/sbin/ping"
DFSORT="4"
DFEXCLUDE="cdrom"
DFWARN="90"
DFPANIC="95"
MACHINE=`uname -n`

Hope this helps,

    My xymon server is Solaris 10 running Xymon 4.2.3.  I am in the
    process of migrating from BB to Xymon.  I have a solaris 10 sparc
    client which is running both BB and Xymon clients.  To prep Xymon
    for BB extension scripts, I first concatenated bbsys.local onto
    hobbitclient.cfg.

    Next I installed the BB extension script *bb-nfs-client.sh*.  It
    erroneously reports "No NFS filesystems currently mounted on
    ftp01" under the Xymon client.  The same script works correctly
    under the BB client.

    I ran the script in debug mode.  It correctly populates
    PINGEDHOSTS and NFSHOST.  However it ends as:

    + /usr/xpg4/bin/egrep -vi (No such file|not a block device)
    /export/home/xymon/client/tmp/NFSOUT.8354.err
    STj
    + /usr/bin/mv -f /export/home/xymon/client/tmp/NFSOUT.8354.err~
    /export/home/xymon/client/tmp/NFSOUT.8354.err
    + [ -s /export/home/xymon/client/tmp/NFSOUT.8354.err ]
    + [ -s /export/home/xymon/client/tmp/NFSERR.8354 ]
    + [ green = green ]
    STATUS=status <xxx>.nfs green Fri Aug 21 09:59:09 CDT 2009 - NFS
    mounts on ftp01 OK
    + [ -s /export/home/xymon/client/tmp/NFSOUT.8354 ]
    + [  =  -a  =  ]
    LINE=No NFS filesystems currently mounted on <xxx>
    + /export/home/xymon/client/bin/bb 10.80.6.50 status <xxx>.nfs
    green Fri Aug 21 09:59:09 CDT 2009 - NFS mounts on ftp01 OK

    No NFS filesystems currently mounted on <xxx>


    What else do I need to do to get this script working properly
    under Xymon?

    thanks
