RE: [hobbit] Solaris vxfs filesystem monitor.

["Everett, Vernon" <Vernon.Everett (at) woodside.com.au>]

Hi

This bug is not just with Veritas, but with ZFS and any file system where the path in df -n -l exceeds 19 characters.
See here http://www.hswn.dk/hobbiton/2008/01/msg00447.html.
My work-around used cut :-)

I am surprised this bug is still hanging around.

Cheers
      V

Subject: [hobbit] Solaris vxfs filesystem monitor.

With Xyxmon - I am not using a specific monitor for the veritas file systems on my server.   The default script  does not let them be seen in the display.

I edited the  $BB_HOME/bin/hobbitclient-sunos.sh  script to fix this.  I would like to recommend this to be included in future builds - Its a simple change:

Ine 25:

FSTYPES=`/bin/df -n -l|awk '{print $3}'|egrep -v "^proc|^fd|^mntfs|^ctfs|^devfs|^objfs|^nfs"|sort|uniq`

Change to:
FSTYPES=`/bin/df -n -l|awk -F: '{print $2}'|egrep -v "^proc|^fd|^mntfs|^ctfs|^devfs|^objfs|^nfs"|sort|uniq`

This allows the display of the vxfs filesystems.

The issue is the way they output under the default.  Most have a space in front of the colon, but veritas does not - its colon abuts the first field. By splitting on the colon, yo get what is intended.

This may apply under other OS's, but I don't have ay with veritas outside of the solaris one.
