Hi Martin,
Although I'm not sure how to trace this back to a particular host via logs;
in my experience the #trace option in bb-hosts has a high chance of causing
it. I ended up limiting the amount of hops it could make, and the errors
then went. If this is the cause of your problem, you could at least narrow
down the hosts by whether or not they are responsive to pings and whether
they are set to trace on failure.
The default TTL (number of hops) for traceroute is 30 (on my distribution),
I limited it to 10 in hobbitserver.cfg: TRACEROUTE="traceroute -m10"
Regards,
Phil

Hi !
I've got besides warning-mail by xymon ..
bbtest warning (YELLOW)
Error output:
Timeout waiting for data from child, killing it
Timeout waiting for data from child, killing it
Child process terminated with signal 15
Unfortunately i didn't found the host
who makes this error ... Can somebody give me an hint how i detect this
error-host ?
.. in hobbitlaunch.cfg, i've added to the bbnet-test
CMD bbtest-net --report --ping --checkresponse
--dnslog=/usr/lib/hobbit/serverlogs/dns.log --debug
nothing appears in dns.log and in bb-network.log appears to much .. :-(
So, which things are important to detect the error-host apart error and/or
failed in the logfile ?
Is there another possiblity to debug this problem ?
Thanks in advance & cheers
martin
