[hobbit] configuration of bbwin clients in Hobbit

[McGraw, Robert P]

This is working on my side. Also you can click on “Client data” at the
bottom of the hobbit we page to see the data that is being passed.

 

Here is a snippet of my client-loal.cfg. Be sure that your class [win32]
comes after your win32 hostname entry. It seems that which ever one if finds
first that is the one that is used so if [win32] is blank then nothing
happens. 

 

 

[mailrelay]

file:c:\Alligate\Digests\.Red_If_Digest_Did_Not_Run.txt

eventlog:Application

ignore information

ignore success

ignore message could not be scanned

ignore Error occurred in Scanning

eventlog:Security

ignore information

ignore success

ignore MAILRELAY Error Code: 0x0

eventlog:System

ignore information

ignore success

 

 

[win32]

 

 

 

Here is a snippet of my  hobbit-clients.cfg. NOTE: be sure that the
[default] is at the end of the file.

 

#

HOST=mailrelay

    UP 30m 1w

    LOAD 40.0 70.0

    DISK * 90 95

    FILE c:\Alligate\Digests\.Red_If_Digest_Did_Not_Run.txt red CTIME<100800

    LOG %.* %WARNING  COLOR=yellow

    LOG %.* %ERROR  COLOR=red

    PROC AGDigestSvc.exe  1 1

    PROC AgDomSvc.exe  1 1

  

 

Hope this helps.

 

Robert

Hello, I am having a really hard time getting Hobbit to ignore Windows error
log messages.  I searched the groups and can not find an answer that differs
from my setup.  Yet it does not work for me.  

Also, does anyone have the CLASS=win32 feature to work.  Currently I am
filtering by hostnames, but I would like to filter by CLASS.  I have the
following in my files. 

bb-hosts:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx   stfwin6 # COMMENT:"WINDOWS TESTING SERVER"

My client-local.cfg:

[stfwin6]
log:system
ignore TermServDevices

[win32]

My hobbit-clients.cfg:

HOST=stfwin6
        LOG %.* %WARNING  COLOR=yellow
        LOG %.* %ERROR  COLOR=yellow


In client-local.cfg I tried the log keyword as well as the eventlog keyword.

Thank You
-cs

Anna,

I have not had good luck using class names so I have stayed with using host
name. Make sure that your hostname of the same class comes before the class
name. Ever which one it finds first that is the one it will use. So if you
have an empty class name and a host name of the same class comes after the
class name nothing will happen.


So here is my client-local.cfg I have


[hostname.xxx.purdue.edu]
file:c:\Alligate\Digests\.Red_If_Digest_Did_Not_Run.txt
eventlog:Application
ignore information
ignore success
ignore message could not be scanned
ignore Error occurred in Scanning
eventlog:Security
ignore information
ignore success
ignore MAILRELAY Error Code: 0x0
eventlog:System
ignore information
ignore success

and my hobbit-client.cfg

HOST=hostname.xxx.purdue.edu
   UP 30m 1w
   LOAD 40.0 70.0
   DISK * 90 95
   FILE c:\Alligate\Digests\.Red_If_Digest_Did_Not_Run.txt red CTIME<100800
   LOG %.* %WARNING  COLOR=yellow
   LOG %.* %ERROR  COLOR=red
   PROC AGDigestSvc.exe  1 1
   PROC AgDomSvc.exe  1 1

In my use I have found that the epoch time is not calculated correctly. It
seems that it will take the local time to calculate GMT and not adjust for
the time zone.

I have document this in the BBWIN mail list.

Hope this helps.

Robert
