NAME
hobbitd_client - hobbitd worker module for client data
SYNOPSIS
hobbitd_channel --channel=client hobbitd_client [options]
DESCRIPTION
hobbitd_client is a worker module for hobbitd, and as such it is normally
run via the
hobbitd_channel(8)
program. It receives hobbitd client messages sent from systems that
have the the Hobbit client installed, and use the client data to
generate the Hobbit status messages for the cpu-, disk-, memory- and
procs-columns. It also feeds Hobbit data messages with the netstat-
and vmstat-data collected by the client.
When generating these status messages from the client data, hobbitd_client
will use the configuration rules defined in the
hobbit-clients.cfg(5)
file to determine the color of each status message.
OPTIONS
- --no-ps-listing
-
Normally the "procs" status message includes the full process-listing
received from the client. If you prefer to just have the monitored
processes shown, this option will turn off the full ps-listing.
- --no-clear-msgs
-
The Hobbit client does not currently generate data for a "msgs" status
column. To avoid any such column from going purple, hobbitd_client will
generate a "clear" status (indicating "no data") instead. If you are
running a separate script on your clients that generates the "msgs"
column, you must disable this default message by using this option.
- --config=FILENAME
-
Sets the filename for the
hobbit-clients.cfg
file. The default value is "etc/hobbit-clients.cfg" below the Hobbit
server directory.
- --dump-config
-
Dumps the configuration after parsing it. May be useful to track
down problems with configuration file errors.
- --test
-
Starts an interactive session where you can test the hobbit-clients.cfg
configuration.
- --debug
-
Enable debugging output.
