[hobbit] question about Enable/Disable under Administration tab

[White, Bruce]

That's it the hobbitd.chk file.  If time on the server was off, then the
hobbitd process would have either cleared the items or decided that they
were eligible to be disabled yet.

I *think* the list of disabled hosts/services is kept in memory.
There's a checkpoint file: 

   server/tmp/hobbitd.chk


but I don't know what kind of brain dump that is...  It may not include
the disabled list.

I don't know why the full list of servers doesn't show up in your
Admin->Enable/Disable menu, unless they simply haven't reported in yet.

	Folks
	
	I'm having a problem with the Enable/Disable option under the
Administration tab.  Our hobbit server died overnight.  Rather than
replace the motherboard, we moved the disks to another Dell box, same
model, and booted up.  When hobbit was running again, I noticed that
none of the information about devices/servers/services that had been
disabled through the web browser interface were preserved.  I also
noticed that I can only see the list of devices/servers/services to
enable/disable now if I go the individual page where the item is listed.
The entire list is not showing up on the main page any more.
	
	Can someone tell me where to find the information that is
configured from the web browser for the Enable/Disable administrative
option?  Is that stored in a file?  And does anyone have an idea why the
full list of entries from bb-hosts is not shown when I go to
Enable/Disable from the main page?
	
	We are running hobbit 4.2 on a RHEL4 server.  As far as I've
been able to determine, hobbit seems to be running normally otherwise.
	
	Thanks for your help.

	Is there a hobbit client for Red Hat's RHEL5?  The client I use
for RHEL4 has some issues running on RHEL5.
