Create historical data
by bjorn.ihlar＠payer.se 14 Apr '14

Hi all experts! I have a couple of gauges in my system that is sending data to xymon. That is fine. It is plotting nicely on graphs for the day, 2 days, 48 days and two years. But It only plots data from a certain date (the start date) I would like to dig up the data from our database and re-create the historical data. How can that be done ? Any tips or ideas ?! I assume I need to use some lowlevel formatting with the rrd tool but how ? I just need some tips&trix so I can recreate two values for a specific date into rrd database. Anyone knows ? //Björn

recurring email alerts
by JAlexander＠feeneywireless.com 11 Apr '14

11 Apr '14

My Xymon server keeps sending alerts for a system saying that /var/log/fail2ban.log is unreadable. Nothing I can find is testing for this file and the permissions are such that xymon can read it. Any clues on where to look to find what is causing this? Thanks.

bypass duration for alert?
by john.r.rothlisberger＠accenture.com 11 Apr '14

11 Apr '14

Anyone know a way to send a status message which would preempt the duration setting within alerts.cfg? What I would like to do is send a status message for a hostname.test which would cause an alert to be acted on immediately and skip any settings for duration.

Problem to graph disk % from DEVMON
by linuxmasterjedi＠free.fr 10 Apr '14

10 Apr '14

Hi, I'm retrieving data from a remote SNMP device through DEVMON : works fine and I'm happy with it. Now, I would like to graph the disk occupation en %. I retrieve SNMP Disk % in the column "disk" but I can't figure out how to create a regular disk RRD graph. I'm graphing others data from DEVMON with NCV, but I would like to build-in disk graph settings, can someone provide a simple syntax/conf example please ? Thanks !

what am I missing?
by Galen.Johnson＠sas.com 08 Apr '14

08 Apr '14

I'm sure I'm just missing something simple...I have the following in my xymonserver.cfg file: MAXMSG_STATUS=640 MAXMSG_DATA=640 yet the xymond.log file is complaining that it's receiving an "Oversize data/client msg from 123.123.123.123 truncated (n=551425, limit 524288)". I had set the limit to 512 but then upped it to 640. What did I miss? =G=

xymondboard & "client data" ?
by jdustin＠usm.maine.edu 08 Apr '14

08 Apr '14

Greetings - I've been searching for a way to use Xymon to retrieve details from the "client data" report for many hosts. XYMONDBOARD looks like it is *close*, but I cannot find the exact syntax required. I'm running v4.3.7 (old, I know). If I click on the "client data available" for a host, I want to retrieve some of the stanzas in that report (client, osversion). But for many hosts, via a CLI. Thanks for any assistance you can pass along. -- Jon Dustin - Network Specialist University of Southern Maine Portland, ME 207-780-4152

In light of the openssl bug today, I took a look at the ssh test and noticed that openssh version listed. Anyone know how we could add openssl version to this test? -- Isaac Traxler AIX,Linux Admin Louisiana State University, LONI traxler at lsu.edu High Performance Computing 225-578-1923 Storage & Infrastructure
