<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>OS detection on Linux
systems
<BR>-----------------------------
<BR>The client normally determines the operating system
auto-
<BR>matically from the "uname -s" output. This results in
all
<BR>Linux systems reporting as "Linux" - which causes
the
<BR>vmstat graphs to fail for certain types of
systems:
<BR>
<BR> - Red Hat Enterprise
Linux
<BR> Should report "rhel3"
instead.
<BR>
<BR> - Systems running Linux kernels
2.2.x (Debian
Woody)
<BR> Should report
"linux22"
instead.
<BR>
<BR>To override the default, start the client using
the
<BR>"--os=OSNAME" option to the runclient.sh startup
command.

<DIV><BR></DIV><BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>Thanks for the info but how
hobbit distinguishes the different redhat versions ?? Because the output of
uname -s is the same on redhat as 2.1, 3 and 4 (ia32 or ia64) ! Or in the
do_vmstat.c there is a structure called rhel3. So, does that mean Hobbit never
use this structure...?</FONT> <BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>Anyway, the
output for hp-ux is correct but I got the unknown OS message in my log.
Something goes wrong somewhere.</FONT> <BR><FONT face=sans-serif size=2>Thanks
