Good day! My bad. I checked the event log again from the 4.2.0 version and the description is there. It's just that the description in the latest beta release is displayed as in the event viewer.

question about badTEST
by mailinglist0＠skurfer.com 21 Jul '10

21 Jul '10

Can badTEST only be used with built-in network tests? I have the following two tags: badldaps:1:1:100 badol:1:1:100 If I shut down LDAP, “ldaps” goes yellow, but “ol” still goes red. Do I need to just modify the script that reports “ol” status to get it to go yellow? A related question: Can you use ‘-1’ as the last number to say “unlimited”? -- Rob McBroom <http://www.skurfer.com/>

Working on Xymon Documentation
by tjyang2001＠gmail.com 20 Jul '10

20 Jul '10

According to R1, we now have 7 volunteers interested in Xymon documentation area. I am interested to find out who are willing to work on Item 2 of R2. I started a few years back and never got to finish it. Henrik gave me S.F. commit privilege for this purpose. so I still own him the set of docs. I worked on this and later found I am really bad at English Writing. So I try to convert the troff files into latex file and have the book center around existing set of troff files. I got a RTFM xymon book for my me and my colleague to study Xymon with. New I have a two data sources issue, latex and troff files. So every time troff files changed latex file need to be changed as well. This is quite labor intensive. I looked around and found there is latex2troff file converter, the make process can generate troff file. If we can have all team members use latex then we can generate all Xymon doc into different formats use latex. For now I like to invite people interested about this xymon-latex project to join me. I will clean up and upload my existing work to S.F. sandbox/tjyang/docs directory. Lots of work here to generate Xymon docs set(using latex) Please help. Regards tj R1: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/System_Monitoring_with_Xymon/Developer_Guide#X… R2: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/System_Monitoring_with_Xymon/Developer_Guide#X… -- T.J. Yang

Local thresholds of custom-client-scripts?
by Carl.Melgaard＠STAB.RM.DK 19 Jul '10

19 Jul '10

Hi, So I've made a client script to pass status data to the xymon server, and graph it too. I'd like to test the data returned from the client towards some thresholds and alert accordingly - is that possible? Or is the only way to do the tests in the client-script (which means more housekeeping)? PS! Is it possible to distribute the client-scripts in any way? Like push them out like the logfetch.cfg? I havent looked into clientupdate yet, and got no clue if it does the things Im looking for. /melgaard

Given the recent discussion about xymon clients, I would like to add collectd (http://collectd.org) as something to investigate... Craig
