[hobbit] scripting help

Hi Iain,

I really don't want to install an smnp client on each windows machine, which may or may not affect the performance of a mission critical servers, to do the polling of data, when I can actually get the hobbit server to fire a script.

Also, what or how I am executing this script is not the question I am placing here. I'm just wondering how I can read parameters after the test name in bb-hosts (my planned version of blades:(blade port number):(ip address)) that is very similar to the setup of how Henrik has badtest:x:x:x


Cheers,

So if you want to monitor individual blades can you not install the
hobbit client on the OS that resides on the blades? There are  unix and
windows clients for hobbit.......

Just an idea....
