Antwort: RE: [hobbit] Howto delete abandoned datafiles



No. I export the data from our inventory and simply regenerate the bbhosts 
files. So old hosts simply are missing in the new bbhosts files. So I 
don't know which hosts were deleted. Therefore I would need to store the 
old export file and compare it to the new one to find the differences and 
use the "drop host" command. I find that very complicated. 

Such a cleanup utility would also be helpful if one edits the bbhosts by 
hand and forgets to drop a host he has deleted.

I just started to write a shellscript which scans the rrd directory and 
tries to find the host in the bbhost files. But is complicated to follow 
all the includes. I thought bbhostgrep is the answer but it only can find 
a test, not a host.

Any ideas
Thorsten

Are you using the "drop host" function in the "bb" command?

Hi

I have written a script which generates several hobbit bbhosts include 
files automaticly from our inventory system. Now I have a problem when a 
host has been deinstalled.
I delete the entry from the hobbit config but the old datafiles (rrd and 
so on) keep there forever.

Is there a tool to scan the complete hobbit bbhost hierarchy and delete 
all data which are not longer needed?

Thank you
