Im going to try an OS patch and see if that fixes it.

Well, if the client gets "stuck" while collecting the data it sends to
Hobbit, then as far as Hobbit is concerned there are no data for this
host - which is what the "purple" status is really telling you.

So the question is: Why does "netstat -an" stall like that? I'm not in
any way an AIX expert, but it sounds like a buggy "netstat" to me ...
