hobbitclient.cfg
HOBBITCLIENT.CFG(5) File Formats Manual HOBBITCLIENT.CFG(5)
NAME
hobbitclient.cfg - Xymon client environment variables
DESCRIPTION
Xymon programs use multiple environment variables beside the normal set of variables. For the Xymon client, the environment definitions
are stored in the ~xymon/client/etc/hobbitclient.cfg file. Each line in this file is of the form NAME=VALUE and defines one environment
variable NAME with the value VALUE.
SETTINGS
BBDISP The IP-address used to contact the Xymon server. Default: Chosen when the Xymon client was compiled.
BBDISPLAYS
List of IP-adresses of Xymon servers. Data will be sent to all of the servers listed here. This setting is only used if
BBDISP=0.0.0.0.
BBPORT The portnumber for used to contact the Xymon server. Default: 1984.
BBHOME The Xymon client top-level directory. Default: The $HOBBITCLIENTHOME setting inherited from the "runclient.sh" script which starts
the Xymon client.
BBCLIENTLOGS
The directory for the Xymon clients' own logfiles. Default: $BBHOME/logs
BBTMP Directory used for temporary files. Default: $BBHOME/tmp/
BB Full path to the bb(1) client program. Default: $BBHOME/bin/bb.
Commands
Many extension scripts expect a series of environment variables to point at various system utilities. These are included in the file
when the client is built.
INHERITED SETTINGS
Some environment variables are inherited from the "runclient.sh" script which launches the Xymon client:
MACHINEDOTS
The hostname of the local system. Default: Taken from "uname -n".
MACHINE
The hostname of the local system, with dots replaced by commas. For compatibility with Big Brother extension scripts.
BBOSTYPE
The operating system of the local system, in lowercase. Default: taken from "uname -s".
HOBBITCLIENTHOME
The top-level directory for the Xymon client. Default: The location of the "runclient.sh" script.
