bb-dnsquery.pl
This script can be used to ensure that DNS name resolution works from the machine where the script runs on. To make sense the BB-server must be reachable from the machine even though DNS is not available (/etc/hosts). Main purpose is to monitor DNS access from specific network segments. Use this script if you operate servers which rely on services on different machines and therefore need a working DNS.

bbfetch2.3.tar.gz
BB-Fetch v2 is a rewrite of the old version of bbfetch because there was no combo messages support. This version includes normal and combo messages support. The purpose of bb-fetch stays the same as the old one. Instead of sending bb data from the client to the server, with bb-fetch the bb data will be collected by the server using the ssh protocol. This is very handy at well protected sites like DMZ's where no connections are allowed to the localnet but ssh connections are allowed from the localnet to the DMZ. Has been tested on Linux, Solaris 7, 8 and HPUX 10.20, 11.00 but works on most platforms.

maint.pl.v2.11.tar.gz
A perl CGI script that creates a web interface for disabling host/test pairs. This is a replacement for bb-servmaint.sh, maint.pl V1.x and en-dis.cgi utilities.

V2.11 fixes the hostname parsing when auto-selecting the host and test from a HOSTSVC request. This is useful when selecting the Maintenance icon from a failing hostsvc page. A wrench icon is included to add to HTML headers.

butter-1.0.6.tar.gz
Butter is intended to be a tastier, healthier substitute for larrd. Admittedly, you might not be able to make as many things with butter as with larrd, but butter should be faster and easier to work with than larrd. Both larrd and butter allow you to graph BigBrother data.
The larrd-0.44 variant was based upon larrd-0.42 and has now been renamed butter. Larrd and butter both continue to be developed separately but still influence each other.

Monitors various NetWare attributes via ncpfs: abend, bkp (ARCserve), conlog, disk (all readable volumes), slist, ups (pwrchute), users. Alternative to loading a BB client on Novell servers. Supports (requires?) IPX. New: bugfixes, updates for NetWare 6 and ARCserve 9, more concise bkp/abend output, more coloring, improved error-checking. Note: "msgs" has been renamed back to "conlog". A future version will parse SYS$LOG.ERR for msgs. This file might be named bb-ncpfs.sh.1 rather than its proper name of bb-ncpfs.sh - rename it!

sunhw.sh
This is an very simple script/test, but extremely useful. It detects ANY hardware failure in Sun SPARC systems by using the standard 'prtdiag' command. Prtdiag exits with a value of '1' if there is an hardware error, otherwise with an exit code of '0'. This way, no model/platform specific (i.e. V240/V890/15K, etc.) customizations are required, as the output of 'prtdiag' differs on most systems. It works fine on Fujitsu-Siemens systems too.

The file bb_plot_sar-2.tar contains a Big Brother ext script which runs sar on each client and sends a log as an invisible layer. A cgi script extracts the data from the html and displays the results as stunning png images. It shows cpu, memory, paging and disk buffer activity but could easily be modified to do more. This is a "fat free" product. No larrd used in the ingredients. All you need is gnuplot installed on the BB server to create the graphic plot files.

bb-omsa-raid.sh
Current version: 1.4

This is a local RAID monitoring script for Dell PowerEdge RAID Controllers (PERCs) (and also CERCs) which works in conjunction with Dell's OpenManage Server Administration (OMSA) tool called 'omreport'. It is intended as a single replacement for both Megaraid and AACRAID monitoring scripts and is the only realistic way to monitor megaraid_mm/megaraid_mbox driven PERC RAID devices under linux 2.6 kernels with the loss of "/proc/megaraid" (kernel 2.4).
Note that while the entire OMSA suite is large, you don't need to install it all to have this script work. If you download the package and untar/zip it you can simply run the installer with the "-s" option to install the base and storage components only.

Alternatively, you can go to http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Repository/OMSA where you can learn about how to install the bits of OMSA you need from Dell's repository at least for RHEL and SuSE. There are repackagings of OMSA for Debian, Ubuntu, etc. if you look hard enough.

While most servers have only one PERC in them, this script should deal with any number of Controllers, Virtual Disks and Array Disks. The syntax should be simple enough that you can add any extra tests fairly easily. To do this you should look through "/opt/dell/srvadmin/sm/mibs/dcstorag.mib" for possible values for the field you wish to monitor.

This script is known to work with OMSA versions 4.5.0, 5.0.0, 5.4.0 and 5.5.0, and the following PERC/CERC devices:
SCSI/SAS

bb-3510fc.pl can be used to monitor a Sun StorEdge 3510 FC Array.

Current Version: 1.5

It checks

  • devices
  • disk status
  • logical drives
  • enclosure component status like fans, temparatures, voltages, etc., if reported by your system.

bb-3510fc.pl runs fine with sccli versions 1.x and 2.x. It has been tested with 1.6.2 and 2.1.1

Version 1.5 of bb-3510fc.pl is the best available version and is recommended over all previous versions.

Have fun,

bb-logchecker-deadcat.pl
this script checks key words in a log file . you can return red, yellow or red alert if it finds red or yellow or red key words... The REAL advantage is that it doesn't restart to check from the begenning of the log but only from a stored offset !!!

bb-msfclust-1.3.rar
UPDATED! 12/22/2003 Fixed a problem with proper reporting to bb when using FQDN. Thanks to Jim Rash for discovering this problem. bb-msfclust is a Perl script for Windows and ActiveState Perl that monitors services on a Microsoft (Fail-over) Cluster and reports to Big Brother. It reports green if the service is found on one of the clustered Servers and the name of the Server it is running on. It reports red if the service is not running. It does not require the WNT/W2K client.

It's been developped in perl, on linux.

bb-disk.1.9.udiff.gz
Issue: With very large filesystems 1% of the disk can be > 1GB. Being sent a red alert for the reason that only 2GB of disk are free is not always desirable. Solution: This patch is a fully-backward compatible version of bb-disk.sh that when added will not change the behavior of filesystems not in the bb-dftab. They will still alarm at the default of 90% for yellow and 95% for red. Filesystems in bb-dftab without extra fields will still alarm at the given percent. If you add two addtional fields they will specify the number of KB to alarm at. For example

/bubba:100:100:2097152:1048576

/bubba will go yellow if it has < 2GB free and red if it has < 1GB free.

turbo.tar.gz
This file contains 2 modules:

A turboavlbty similar to the original fping in funtionality and also requiring the fping program. It has a much better performance as the core processing is written in perl and is fully asynchronous.

A turbociscouptime that probes hosts using snmp. Right now it will probe Cisco routers for their uptime to detect reboots. It's multithreaded using fork, in perl. The code is modular, so you can easly monitor other parameters, using any exotic protocol you can talk using perl, while mantaining the high performance multithreaded monitoring.

If you have >200 hosts and little time to monitor them (30 seconds) this is what you need.

cricket-bb.monitor.exec.tar.gz
Cricket (version <= 0.72) have extensive monitors but can only set alarms via SNMP traps. This tarball contains patched versions of several cricket libraries which allow cricket to set and clear alarms via shell commands, perl scripts or SNMPT traps. These changes should be integrated into the cricket code base RSN, and this file will be obsolete.

Updated version of Ralf Strandell excellent storage-lvm-aix script. This is a feature rich logical volume manager test that detects: 1) volumegroups that are not varied on (or are inaccessible for some other reason), 2) volumegroups that are not active, 3) stale physical volumes and stale physical partitions, 4) too many/few closed logical volumes in a volumegroup, 5) missing high availability (LVs not mirrored), 6) if quorum equals to the number of active physical volumes (and one failing disk would make the volumegroup close). Extensive configuration of warning limits and colors through bb-lvmtab. Version 1.0.3. NEW: Added a field to completely disable a volume group. Usefull for HACMP disk heartbeats or when you have a VG that's varied off for a reason. Won't report 2105 disks.

This was tested on USVD 5.5.1 but may work on previous versions where the bop_cmd -> cnote_add are equivalent. This script _should_ work on any USVD system on a Windows or Unix server.

bigcactus.plx
I've written an integration of Big Brother and Cacti (inspired by both bbmrtg and bbcacti), similar to that of bbmrtg in that it will alert on given thresholds. I wrote it in a way that allows you to customize your testing against a threshold - for example: "if the cpu breaks the given thresholds for three continuous polls, then send an alert and make the bbtest turn red or yellow". The script is functional in my environment here, but is generalized so that anyone can easily add threshold tests. If anyone is interested, let me know. I only have subroutines right now that will do thresholds and stuff for Novell Servers, but I feel that it should not be hard to add new subroutines and call them. I've been a little busy with school and work lately, so I haven't had a chance to add others...that's where everyone else comes in!!! ;-) Please feel free to give me feedback/updates/bugs/fixes!!!

In addition I wanted to know which zones are running in which pool I would like to exchange the origin cpu-script with this one and to have a larrd overview, but I have to save some work for the future ;-) For now it gives back the load on each processor pool and all the zones on this pool.

bb2we.pl
What does it do? It will read in the big brother logs directory for alert color items and report them up in to the local windows eventlog. Hence the name bb2we (Big Brother 2 window event). You can run this at the command line , so you can use the windows task scheduler to run it as often as you wish, or some other scheduling mechanism (BB or managing agent, add some code to cycle using sleep and encapsulating it in a subroutine, or get fancy and gen a service out of the script. It does the core stuff for you though. Why would you do this? If you dont want to mess with mail or snmp to get your alerts to another Management system like Tivoli, HPOV, or something else, you can just monitor the windows event log on the BB server now and bring them over using the target systems standard agent.

sge.sh
First hack at a basic SGE/N1GE check. This script will alert if any local queues are in error, and will return some basic information such as listing the queues and jobs on the local host. It will also give the host definition and list any errors found. Version 0.2, now marks disabled queues as clear instead of error. Version 0.3, added unknown queue status, and cut down on the number of qhost runs, also works with HOBBIT.

bbnote-1.1.tar.gz
This note system uses your existing $BBHOME/www/notes directory. Each note is replaced by a zero length file. A mod_rewrite rule tells Apache to run the CGI instead. If the file is greater than 0 then it loads just as usual. The body of each note will be stored in a directory of your choice.

For a demo click here. If you're havin difficulty with the demo just send me an email.


Now supports Xymon/Hobbit

Thanks Mark Jones for the debug info. Sub-page groups can have their own page delays. Allows ep- page types to use the mail program defined by the environment variable "EMAIL" and inserts the "REPLYTO" header into the message. REPLYTO could contain any number of valid mail headers. Provides runtime Debugging controlled via variable. This version allows lots of different types of wildcards in tag definitions.

bb-via-mail.tar.gz
The normal communication between bb-client and server uses Port 1984 and the bb command located in the $BBHOME/bin directory. This works fine for internal LAN, but doesn't work for Servers inside the DMZ or on other locations behind firewalls. The call is always: $BBHOME/bin/bb {IP of Server} "some status text" All information for the Server is written in "some status text", so I got the idea to encapsulate this information to transfer it through the firewalls. I got the idea with mails, ok they are not in-time but usualy it works and most of informations are not time critical, like load, disk-usage and message files. At least the default on bb let them run every 5 minutes, so if the mail takes again 5 minutes it would be fine for me.

ftpauth
This script was hacked from the bb-proto script. I hacked this script primarily just to check to see if our FTP was authenticating properly. This script checks to see how many directories and/or files are in the root directory of an FTP account. If it sees no files or directories, it knows that it can't authenticate and sends out a red. If it sees more than a minimum number of files/directories, it returns a yellow. This script has been tested using a Pentium 4 running Ubuntu Server 6 under Big Brother Client 3.2.

This script was hacked from the bb-proto script. This script requires Lynx, awk and PureFTP to work properly. (If you are using another FTP server, you'll have to hack the script a bit.) As well, edit bbsys.local in /$BBHOME/etc to define where awk is located on the machine before you use this script. This script determines the number of users who are currently logged into an FTP server and returns a red if that goes beyond a threshold. This script is untested!

It can divide the text in block (string or regexp) using a custom delimiter for every file, and then check every line. If a line match the rule (string or regexp) all the block is matched as policy. Policy could be: skip error warning info. The rule could have also a hours in wich to not be considered as warning/error but as info. The last parameter is also used to print an additional message following the block matched. Every logfile has a rule-file to associate. Read the istructions for more information.

bbfetch2.2.tar.gz
BB-Fetch v2 is a rewrite of the old version of bbfetch because there was no combo messages support. This version includes normal and combo messages support. The purpose of bb-fetch stays the same as the old one. Instead of sending bb data from the client to the server, with bb-fetch the bb data will be collected by the server using the ssh protocol. This is very handy at well protected sites like DMZ's where no connections are allowed to the localnet but ssh connections are allowed from the localnet to the DMZ. Has been tested on Linux, Solaris 7, 8 and HPUX 10.20, 11.00 but works on most platforms.

28 May 2003: added multi threading, fixed some bugs.

bb-dns-load-1.1.tar.gz
bb-dns-load: DNS query load monitoring tool for BIND versions 8 & 9. There are two scripts (split for simplicity and security), one triggers a BIND stats dump and is run from cron every five minutes as root or the name server daemon owner. The other script (a client "ext") parses BIND stats and calculates queries per second over the five minute sample. Alarms can be triggered based on excessive query rates. Update 1.1 provides top talker and top query information as an option if you have tcpdump installed. This helps pinpoint the source of problems or abuse.

server-time-ntp.tar
This is a highly configurable NTP time server test. A great effort has been made to make the test more quiet ie. give less false alerts. Test clock offset, drift, residual drift and stratum. Optionally test the offset, stratum and status of each time source (server). Verify that the local time server is running and configured. Support for graphics (using Gnuplot). Should work both with ntpd ver. 3 and ver. 4 (autodetected, hopefully). Configurable colors. Version 0.9.2 beta. NEW: "syncing" and "sync lost" colors are now user settable.

The notes_task script seem to have more serius problems as it try to grep the tasks, but when grepping tast1 it also gets task10, task11 etc, and the same with task2 and task20. So that one is updated to R6, but still not great.
