RE: {bb} bb cpu and disk not displaying on the bbserver

["David Tam" <David@broadspire.com>]

Thanks for the information,
Modified bb-hosts to include the BBNET and BBPAGER 
66.240.178.227  www102.mediaserve.net   # BBPAGER BBNET BBDISPLAY ftp pop3 smtp ssh http://www102.mediaserve.net/

Also verified bbclient is running 
5484 ?        S      0:00 /bin/sh ./runbb.sh start


On the bbvar/logs on the server it only shows these:
-rw-r--r--  1 bb bb  404 Jan 27  2006 www102,mediaserve,net.conn
-rw-r--r--  1 bb bb  212 Jan 27  2006 www102,mediaserve,net.ftp
-rw-r--r--  1 bb bb  368 Jan 27  2006 www102,mediaserve,net.http
-rw-r--r--  1 bb bb  172 Jan 27  2006 www102,mediaserve,net.pop3
-rw-r--r--  1 bb bb  276 Jan 27  2006 www102,mediaserve,net.smtp
-rw-r--r--  1 bb bb  176 Jan 27  2006 www102,mediaserve,net.ssh

Which is correct, but the disk/cpu display still not showing up.

Thanks,
David

The line from bb-hosts should be more like:

66.240.178.227  www102.mediaserve.net   # BBDISPLAY BBNET BBPAGER ftp
  pop3 smtp ssh http://www102.mediaserve.net/

Specifically, unless you have another machine acting and as BBNET
and BBPAGER, you'll need to define one here in order to get
network tests and alert messages. The directives "cpu" and "disk"
are not required. Only network tests (and some external scripts)
need to be defined in bb-hosts. Although not necessary, a URL
should end in a filename or a "slash". Like most browsers, BB will
add one if you forget but it's still a good habit to get into.

The files bb-dftab and bb-cputab are not strictly necessary. BB
will use default values if they are not present, so I'd move them
out of the way until you have things working.

The first thing to check is that the client is actually running.
Check the contents of the BBOUT log file on the client side and
the output of the "ps" command to confirm this.

The next probable cause is that the client is not reporting with
the expected name (www102.mediaserve.net). Have a look in the
BBVAR/logs directory and see if there are logfiles being created
under another name. If this is the case, you can use the
etc/bbaliasname file (section 6.15 in the on-line manual) to
specify the required name.

Cheers, Phil.
