[hobbit] monitor files,log msgs,

Wed Feb 6 16:27:42 CET 2008

All,

I'm having problems with this as well.  I'm able to get the following as
they are the defaults:

Conn

CPU

Disk

Info

Memory

SSH

Trends

I can't get the following:

Files

MSGS

Ports

Procs

I'm able to get them to work on the Hobbit server itself, but I can't
seem to figure out how to get the same information from the clients.  I
installed the Hobbit client from the package and the servers see each
other.  This is what is in the hobbit-clients.cfg file:

DEFAULT

        # These are the built-in defaults.

        UP      1h

        LOAD    5.0 10.0

        DISK    * 90 95

        MEMPHYS 100 101

        MEMSWAP 50 80

        MEMACT  90 97

        PROC    httpd 3 40

        PROC    /usr/lib/inet/inetd start

        PROC    /usr/lib/ssh/sshd 1 99

        PROC    /usr/lib/hobbit/server/bin/hobbitlaunch

#

        PORT "LOCAL=%([.:]22)$" state=ESTABLISHED min=0 max=99
color=yellow TRACK=ssh "TEXT=SSH logins"

        PORT "LOCAL=%([.:]80)$" state=ESTABLISHED min=0 max=99
color=yellow TRACK=http "TEXT=HTTP"

HOST=SGLNHHOBBIT

file /var/adm/messages SIZE>0 MTIME<20000 TRACK yellow
**This test is the only one that show up on the web page.  It shows a
yellow "!" at the current time.  I can't figure out how to get this to
go green except to vi the file every 20000 seconds.  Any ideas?

file /var/log/hobbit/page.log SIZE>0 MTIME<7200 TRACK yellow
**This does not show up at all

file /var/log/hobbit/hobbitd.log SIZE>0 MTIME<7200 TRACK yellow
**This does not show up at all

file /var/log/hobbit/hobbitlaunch.log SIZE>0 MTIME<7200 TRACK yellow
**This does not show up at all

file /var/log/hobbit/hobbitd.pid SIZE>0 SIZE>0 MTIME<7200 TRACK yellow
**This does not show up at all

file /var/log/hobbit/rrd-status.log SIZE>0 MTIME<7200 TRACK yellow
**This does not show up at all

file /var/log/hobbit/bb-network.log SIZE>0 MTIME<7200 TRACK yellow
**This does not show up at all

file /var/log/hobbit/bb-display.log SIZE>0 MTIME<7200 TRACK yellow
**This does not show up at all

file /var/log/hobbit/rrd-data.log SIZE>0 MTIME<7200 TRACK yellow
**This does not show up at all

file /var/log/syslog SIZE>0 MTIME<7200 TRACK yellow
**This does not show up at all

All the above files are in the location listed.  I'm guessing that they
don't show up because of the settings listed.

This is what is in the "client-local.cfg" file (as well as the
defaults):

[wfs-bkp01-atl]

file:/var/log/

Both of the above files are located on the Hobbit server.  If I read the
files right on the client side there is not anything that I need to
configure.  I could be wrong about this.

Thank you,

HI,

   Thanks. It worked.

          Is there any way to display contents of file or it displays
only size, timestamp, file type, permissions. When I made following
entry on client-local.cfg

file:`ls -l -t /var/adm/sa/sar*`:4096

it outputs

When I click on any one of the lick  it outputs

[file:-rw-r--r--   1 sys      sys       118298 Feb  1 18:05
/var/adm/sa/sar01]

ERROR: No such file or directory

But file is there.  Do I have to change or add anything to display the
contents of sar file or it checks only size, timestamp, permission etc.

Your client-local.cfg syntax is wrong.  client-local tells hobbit what
to upload, hobbit-client tells Hobbit how to use what it uploaded.  You
have the two files configured the same, which is wrong.  Also, you don't
need anything on the client side if you're running Hobbit in the typical
manner.  The client-local.cfg data is downloaded from the server to the
client automatically.

Try something more like this:

Client-local.cfg

[nj1db200pt]

file:/home/monitor/test

file:/var/log/

log:/var/adm/messages:4096

The default copies of all these files are commented heavily at the top
showing all this syntax.

I have been trying to monitor files and messages.but no luck.

On server side I have edited following files and given entries

hobbit-client.cfg

    HOST=nj1db200pt 

       FILE  /home/monitor/test mtime>600 red

       DIR %^/var/log TRACK

       LOG /var/adm/messages  WARNING COLOR=yellow

Client-local.cfg

     [nj1db200pt]

    FILE  /home/monitor/test mtime>600 red

   DIR %^/var/log TRACK

   LOG /var/adm/messages  WARNING COLOR=yellow

On Client side

    HOST=nj1db200pt

     FILE  /home/monitor/test mtime>600 red

     DIR %^/var/log TRACK

     LOG /var/adm/messages  WARNING COLOR=yellow

  Do I have to edit any other files. or I am doing something wrong. I
can see any output. I can see only white icon.help me monitorl logs and
messages

Thanks
