[hobbit] hobbit client

RPM (yum actually).  That file is referred to in
/usr/libexec/hobbit/client/etc/hobbitclient.cfg:

# Environment settings for the Hobbit client.

include /var/lib/hobbit-client/runtime.cfg

CONFIGCLASS="$BBOSTYPE"         # Default configuration class for
logfiles

PATH="/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/etc"  # PATH setting for the client
scripts.

# You normally dont need to modify anything below here

BBPORT="1984"                   # Portnumber where hobbitd listens

BBHOME="$HOBBITCLIENTHOME"      # Directory for the Hobbit client files

? runtime.cfg?  I've never seen that file.  Did you compile from source,
or are you using a packaged (i.e. rpm) version of Hobbit?

In any case, BBDISP refers back to BBSERVERIP, and BBDISPLAYS is usually
left blank. 
In my hobbitserver.cfg file, BBSERVERHOSTNAME is the FQDN that the
physical server is called, and BBSERVERIP is the IP of its public
interface.  In your case, it should be " DoyleBrunson.AILife.Com
<http://doylebrunson.ailife.com/> " and 10.2.0.99 <http://127.0.0.1/> ,
respectively.  Changing this requires a restart of Hobbit.

Or, how about runtime.cfg:

BBDISP="10.2.0.99"

BBDISPLAYS=""

(should something be in BBDISPLAYS?

Hmmm....case sensitive?   Need FQDN?   Where is it getting this from?

Also, check hobbitlaunch.log and hobbitd.log for any errors.  They may
provide some clues as well.

Can you do the following on the Hobbit server?

# hostname
# cat /etc/hosts 
# ifconfig <primary interface>
# ps auxw | grep hobbit

Also, you should have the following in the hobbitlaunch.cfg file: 
[hobbitclient]
        ENVFILE /var/hobbit/client/etc/hobbitclient.cfg
        NEEDS hobbitd
        CMD /var/hobbit/client/bin/hobbitclient.sh
        LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/hobbitclient.log
        INTERVAL 5m

Okay, did that...not any better:

I'm getting even less (that was why I separated it in the first place)
and still no CPU/disk utilization.

Frank,

We already told you what your problem was - merge those two hosts you
printed from your bb-hosts into one and you'll be set.

No client should have bbgen, bbtest, hobbitd - those are processes on
the hobbit server to do its tests for your hosts.  Can you send a screen
capture of your WWW output?

If I add a new host I get conn, info and trend.  If I install the client
and have it report to the server, I start collecting data for cpu, disk,
memory.

Kevin,

It's in the same source package - ./config.client IIRC

Hello all,
  It has been quite a while since I visited here and I could use some
help. Can somebody direct me to where and how I get or obtain or
generate the hobbit client for a linux machine? I can't seem to
remember. Thanks
