Sure, you set BBLOCATION to the appropriate value for each instance of bbtest-net. Here's the stanzas from hobbitlaunch:<br><br>[bbnet-midr]<br> ENVFILE /usr/local/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg<br> NEEDS hobbitd <br>
CMD BBPORT=1984 BBLOCATION=MIDR bbtest-net --report --ping --checkresponse --concurrency=128 --timeout=15 --test-untagged<br> LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bb-network-midr.log<br> INTERVAL 2m<br><br>[bbnet-midr-lf]<br> ENVFILE /usr/local/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg<br>
NEEDS hobbitd <br> CMD BBPORT=1984 BBLOCATION=MIDRLF bbtest-net --report=bbtest-mdrlf --ping --checkresponse --concurrency=128 --timeout=15 --frequenttestlimit=0<br> LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bb-network-midrlf.log<br>
INTERVAL 10m<br><br>I also see that I misstated what I was doing before, the problem was that some of our customers were complaining about how often Hobbit was hitting their site (like checking something every two minutes was going to destroy their site) so I created a separate bbtest-net instance that only ran every 10 minutes instead of every 2 minutes. But the same idea could be used to give a longer timeout if necessary, just change the --timeout argument to bbtest-net.<br>

I just use NET: to specify a different instance of bbtest-net, one with a longer timeout. <br>

Unless something changed recently, the NET keyword allows you to specify which of several Hobbit/Xymon servers performs network checks for a given host. I don't think it would do what the original poster wanted.<div>

You can use the "NET:" keyword (see the bb-hosts man page) to set up an alternate network check. In the stanza within hobbitlaunch.cfg that launches the bbtest-net that is associated with the new set of network checks you can set an alternate timeout. <br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I'm using a few HTTP checks to see how fast (and if) a website responds. However, some are known to be slower than others and I want therefor some sites not to trigger an alert or at least not if it doesn't respond in 10 seconds, but for instance 20 seconds. How can I achieve this for 1 check, not globally for all HTTP checks?<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
<br>
Wouter<br>
