[hobbit] problem with hobbit-clients.cfg - SOLVED

[Torsten Richter]

Hi all,

the problem is solved.
It appeared because I had 2 XYmon servers with different hobbit-clients.cfg.
On the first one the configuration was right but on the second one the section with the hosts was missing.
So the first server reported green for the procs and short after that the second one reported clear.
So after adjusting the hobbit-clients.cfg on the second server the problem disappeared.

Regards
Torsten

Hi Johann,

I tried as you suggested but it did not work.
I don't have a problem with the graphing but with the display of the 
processes.

Cheers
Torsten

Hello,

try putting the TRACK= into quotes.
I had the same issue and with quoting it works at my site.
