Package: hobbit Version: 4.2.0.dfsg-14lenny3 Severity: wishlist hobbit has the (by default disabled) option to warn about bigger system clock offsets on monitored machines.
Unfortunately the implementation is incomplete and not really very intuitive: a) It is displayed in the CPU column. IMHO It should either have its own column ("clock" or so) or be included in the "ntpq" column where I looked for it first. b) It is not possible to assign a value at which the warning level should go red -- only yellow is possible. It even doesn't argue if you provide two values, but the second one is ignored and higher clock offsets still result in only a yellow state. c) Documentation (correctly) states that you can only give one value to CLOCK in hobbit-clients.cfg, but it is not documented what the effect respectively color of values above the given limit will be. (It results in a "yellow" state.) -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.5 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (50, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.iso885915, LC_CTYPE=en_US.iso885915 (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages hobbit depends on: ii hobbit-client 4.2.0.dfsg-14lenny3 client for the Hobbit network moni ii libc6 2.7-18lenny4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.11-1+lenny2 OpenLDAP libraries ii libpcre3 7.6-2.1 Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expressi ii libpng12-0 1.2.27-2+lenny4 PNG library - runtime ii librrd4 1.3.1-4 Time-series data storage and displ ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8g-15+lenny7 SSL shared libraries hobbit recommends no packages. hobbit suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
