First, you ARE running the Hobbit client on cypher, right?

If you're using the original Big Brother client, then the client
configuration is stored on the client, and modifying the
hobbit-clients.cfg file on the Hobbit server has no effect.

If you're using the Hobbit client, then your "disk" status column must
have a "Client data" link near the bottom of the webpage, right above
the disk graph.

Could you try dumping the hobbit-clients.cfg file so we can have a look
at how it is parsed ? Run the command "bbcmd hobbitd_client --test" and
at the prompt enter a '?':

$ bbcmd hobbitd_client --test

After that, try the specific test for cypher:

Hostname (.=end, ?=dump, !=reload) []: cypher
Hosttype []:
Test (cpu, mem, disk, proc, log, port): disk
Filesystem: /data2
Yellow at 50%, red at 60%
