[hobbit] bb-nfs-client.sh (script in ext)

[Thomas Leavitt]

For those who might care in the future:

 

I got bb-nfs-client.sh working on RHEL/CentOS 4/5 (plus a couple of
Fedora and RH9 boxes) by ripping out everything related to monitoring
the size of NFS mounted filesystems, which I could care less about...
there's other code that does exactly that. I also had to add some
environment variables  that were not getting properly set (BBHOME, PING.
BBOSTYPE), as far as I could tell. All I care about is whether the NFS
mounts are available and not producing errors.

 

I'd be happy to share my stripped down version with anyone who cares in
the future, if so, send me an email a thomleavitt at gmail.com.

I'm trying to get this running, so that I can monitor the NFS status of
various hosts, and I'm getting the same error that everyone else (except
T.J. Yang on Solaris) seems to be getting... all the servers are
reported as being down.

 

I'm also not seeing the "nfs" column appear in the Hobbit home page, and
when I click "history" by going directly to the NFS page (which
indicates that the script is at least executing, although it produces no
log file output), I get "Cannot open history file" as well.

 

But, primarily, I'd just like to get this to work properly, first. I can
probably stumble through the process of debugging the script, but if
anyone else can clue me in, I'd appreciate it.

 

Client is running CentOS 4.6, patched and up to date.

 

This is my clientlaunch.cfg entry:

 

[bb-nfs]

        ENVFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/etc/hobbitclient.cfg

        CMD $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/ext/bb-nfs-client.sh

        LOGFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/logs/bb-nfs-client.log

        INTERVAL 5m

 

I've created a blank "bb-def.sh" and put it in the "etc" directory.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Thomas
