AIX df command problem
by sholmes42＠mac.com 13 Sep '11

13 Sep '11

I am having a problem similar to one recently posted, but this is on an AIX host and is caused (I think) by a problem in the way xymon does df on AIX. The xymon version is 4.2.3 and the AIX OS version is 3.5 (I think, I'm a Solaris Admin). Anyway, I can find no way to force the df on AIX to use POSIX formatting AND to report only local file systems. Even if I could, I don't think I can override what xymon uses for df since the comments in the hobbitclient.cfg file say that the envariable definition is only there for compatibility and it is not used. The problem is that an NFS mount file system line in the df output is being parsed wrong and the number in the usage column is being used for the percent used (Available) so that is a huge number. Not only that, again similar to the previous problem, the file system name is being picked up as the contents of the last 3 fields in the output line, i.e. it is not /mnt/tsmupdates (which is what it should be) but "3020485 50% /tsm/updates", which, of course, prevents me from effectively ignoring that file system. I've tried using DISK %.*/mnt/.* IGNORE and that doesn't work. Does anyone have any suggestions? We have a big red page where we shouldn't have.

changing new xymon menu to allow for horizontal drop downs
by tomg＠mcclatchyinteractive.com 12 Aug '11

12 Aug '11

I'd like to add some horizontal drop down menus to the new xymon menu, similar to what is shown here: http://sperling.com/examples/menuh/ With the old menu, it was pretty simple, I just added some code like this: ['Analysis', null, null, ['Web Servers', null, null, ['Averages', null, null, [CPU Utilization, '/hobbit-cgi/...... Of course that doesn't work with the new menu, so I have to start over. Can anyone point me to some example code that does what I'm trying to do? I'm not a web programmer by any means, so any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Tom

httpstatus inconsistency
by troy＠athabascau.ca 08 Aug '11

08 Aug '11

I have two servers (monitor5 and monitor3) running Xymon 4.3.2 that both have the same hosts.cfg entries for a particular host. The entry uses the httpstatus test and goes like this: 192.168.0.29 camilla # postgresql \ http://MyUrlA \ httpstatus=dbB;https://MyUrlB;200 \ httpstatus=dbC;https://MyUrlC;200 \ http://MyUrlD The strange thing, is that when dbC fails with a non 200.... on monitor3 dbC and http tests show red on monitor5 dbC shows red and http shows green Why do the two monitoring servers behave differently? Any idea where to look? thanks, Troy -- This communication is intended for the use of the recipient to whom it is addressed, and may contain confidential, personal, and or privileged information.

AIX memory checks

We’re seeing garbage data on some of our AIX (7.1) clients like this: red Thu Jun 23 15:29:28 EDT 2011 - Memory CRITICAL Memory Used Total Percentage &red Physical 18446744073709551177M 4096M18446744073709551606% &green Swap 40M 4096M 0% The ones that exhibit problems have Active Memory Expansion enabled. Is there anything we can do to get valid data? Should I report it as a bug? -- Rob McBroom <http://www.skurfer.com/>

Anyone? Bueller? Scot Kreienkamp From: Scot Kreienkamp Sent: Monday, June 27, 2011 2:07 PM To: 'xymon at xymon.com' Subject: client problems Hi everyone, Due to some frustrations with the existing clients I have decided to have a go at rolling my own. In the process I have run into some strange behavior with the server side data collector/processor that I've been struggling with for over a week now that I could really use some help with. I've been searching the man pages and the email archives and haven't been able to find anything like what I've run into. My first try with sending reports was with the CPU column. After figuring out that the server was crashing because my lines were too long, I am able to send in a complete report as verified by the client data screen. However, the data collector isn't processing it correctly for reasons that I am unable to determine. First, once it gets past the last line of the cpu section on the web page there are a few processes that repeat. Second, the first line of text containing the up/load/procs message isn't bold like in other hosts. Third, the CPU load number is never added to the RRD. I have run several tcpdumps on other clients to capture their submissions and I was able to fix some problems by comparing mine to those, but now mine looks identical from what I can tell. Here is what the top and bottom of the pages look like: The last 6 lines are duplicates of the lines above. That is not included in the data that was sent though, so how is it getting it? Also, why isn't the value being picked up for the RRD?

Here is what the top and bottom of the pages look like: The last 6 lines are duplicates of the lines above. That is not included in the data that was sent though, so how is it getting it? Also, why isn't the value being picked up for the RRD?

How does the vmstat.rrd file get populated?
by greg.shea＠emc.com 30 Jun '11

30 Jun '11

Hi all, I have added 2 channel processes to my Xymon 4.3.3 instance, that reads data from the status and data channels and writes that data to a file for integration with another product. I have a Solaris 10 client running a standard build no bottom-feeders and I have a vmstat.rrd file, but I'm not seeing the vmstat data off my 2 channel processors. How does the standard Xymon client send the file $XYMONHOME/tmp/xymon_vmstat.hostname.12558 to the server? I'm using Henrik's simple shell script and the --processor option on the rrd channels xymon 8312 8291 0 Jun14 ? 00:00:31 xymond_channel --channel=data --log=/var/log/xymon/rrd-data.log xymond_rrd --rrddir=/apps/xymon/data/rrd --processor=/apps/xymon/server/ext/rrdfeeder.sh xymon 8566 8312 0 Jun14 ? 00:02:50 xymond_rrd --rrddir=/apps/xymon/data/rrd --processor=/apps/xymon/server/ext/rrdfeeder.sh xymon 10987 5997 0 14:36 pts/2 00:00:00 grep rrd xymon 28358 8291 0 Jun17 ? 00:03:20 xymond_channel --channel=status --log=/var/log/xymon/rrd-status.log xymond_rrd --rrddir=/apps/xymon/data/rrd --processor=/apps/xymon/server/ext/rrdfeeder.sh xymon 28359 28358 0 Jun17 ? 00:11:16 xymond_rrd --rrddir=/apps/xymon/data/rrd --processor=/apps/xymon/server/ext/rrdfeeder.sh If I use the bottom feeder scripts, vmstat gets written to my output file. Thanks and regards Greg Shea EMC Corporation

Issue with the hardware monitoring.
by Srinivas.Katragadda＠in.unisys.com 30 Jun '11

30 Jun '11

We are monitoring about Windows 2003, 340+ servers using the Xymon. We have various models like of IBM,HP and DELL. We have installed the respective client packages like IBM Director, HP Insight and DELL Open Manage agents on the client side. We have configured appropriate community strings. Out of which very few of them we are able to get the status. Majority of the servers were not able to do the hardware monitoring. Checked the SNMP configuration at the client side several times, did not find any issue with it. We have opened all the required ports for this one. Can any of you help to get the light of this issue?
