Re: [hobbit] purple clients problem + multiple hosts



Hi Henrik,

...
The hostname you see in the "ghosts" list is the hostname the the
clients use when they report data. This *must* match the one found
in the bb-hosts file, or Hobbit will simply discard the client message
because it doesn't know which host it belongs to.

So you can either change your clients to use the "--hostname" option (e.g. use "--hostname=sieglinde.imada.sdu.dk" when calling
runclient.sh), or add "CLIENT:sieglinde" to the entries in the bb-hosts file.


just before I start to create several client installations dynamically started: Is there any chance you will extend this feature to something like

"CLIENT:sieglinde:elfriede:kasimir"

so that messages are send once for each name? This would resolve our multiple hosts problem?

kind regards
Rolf
