RE: [hobbit] Alerting Cobnfiguration

["Neil Franken" <nfranken (at) theunlimitedworld.co.za>]

Yeah I thought as much however I ran the ./bin/bbcmd hobbitd_alert --test hostname cpu test it did not match a rule. It reported the host name in  lower case and in BBHosts the host was in Upper case. I fixed it with the following regular expression Host=%HOST|host. Strange one but not a train smash.

Case is important!  However, I have found that as long as the case in the bb-hosts file matches the case in the "HOST=" parameter in the hobbit-alerts.cfg file, there is not a problem. I monitor 555 hosts total.  All my windows hosts (~200) are all uppercase.  All my unix/linux hosts (~50) are all lower case.  My network devices (~300) are mixed upper and lower case.

I'm sure HOST= in the alert config will need to match case of bb-hosts.

I've used all lowercase for everything.
