RE: [hobbit] Hobbit - Alert

["White, Bruce" <bewhite (at) fellowes.com>]

I use the following in my hoobit-clients.cfg file to trap EMS messages:
 
LOG %/var/adm/syslog/syslog.log "%(?-i) EMS" color=red
 
I get paged whenever an EMS message appears in any of my HPUX systems
syslog.log file.
 
One question, have you configured hobbit (xymon) to send alerts when a
yellow condition is encountered?

Yes, the file is readable globally.

Can your Hobbit client read the file in question?

Hi,

I would like to monitor HP servers for EMS alerts, and i have added the
below entry in hobbit-clients.cfg.

CLASS=hp-ux
  LOG /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log %EMS COLOR=yellow
  LOG /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log vmunix COLOR=yellow IGNORE=vx_nospace


A similar entry is also there in client-local.cfg file as well as listed
below.

[hp-ux]
log:/var/adm/syslog/syslog.log:102400


Is there anything that i have missed, as i do not receive an alert?

Any suggestion at the earliest would be really really helpful, thanks in
advance.

Regards,
Sanu
