4.3.17 SunOS Client Procs Problem
by Nick＠Pettefar.com 03 Apr '14

03 Apr '14

I amended my client bin/xymonclient-sunos.sh file thus: case $ZTYPE in global) /bin/ps -A -o pid,ppid,user,stime,s,pri,pcpu,time,pmem,rss,vsz,args ;; Global) #/bin/ps -A -o zone,pid,ppid,user,stime,class,s,pri,pcpu,time,pmem,rss,vsz,args | sort /bin/ps -A -o zone,pid,ppid,user,stime,class,s,pri,pcpu,time,pmem,rss,vsz,args|head -1; /bin/ps -A -o zone,pid,ppid,user,stime,class,s,pri,pcpu,time,pmem,rss,vsz,args|sort|grep -v COMMAND ;; *) /bin/ps -A -o pid,ppid,user,stime,class,s,pri,pcpu,time,pmem,rss,vsz,args ;; esac Otherwise you get "Expected string CMD not found in ps output header" due to the sort command tacked onto the end.

graph limit

I am on 4.3.17 and have the bbwin agent on a sql server that has about a dozen and a half disk drives. It creates 3 graphs and then has the broken file image (3 of them). I was wondering if there was a limit on how many graphs can be generated. thanks This e-mail message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.

Saving histlogs data
by Rolands＠logicaltech.com.au 03 Apr '14

03 Apr '14

I'm running Xymon 4.3.10 I got an ext script that just displays my Solaris Cluster status. It is just an information only test and will always stay green. At any moment we can just look at cluster status in this test. (we have other test for failures) But as there is no change in color the different statuses are not logged. Is there a way of saving all the statuses that comes through regardless of no color change? I mean every time it runs (def 5min interval) it saves that output and don't just overwrite the previous. Or even better if there is a change in the status output then save the output. Sample status output: Thursday, 3 April 2014 9:43:56 AM EST === Cluster Resources === Resource Name Node Name State Status Message ------------- --------- ----- -------------- FTP-Agent-rs pftp01-zc1 Online Online - Service is online. pftp01-zc2 Offline Offline pftp01-lh-rs pftp01-zc1 Online Online - LogicalHostname online. pftp01-zc2 Offline Offline - LogicalHostname offline. Cheers, Roland

Xymon Python Library

There is one now. https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Xymon It allows sending status updates to the server (with or without a client) and querying for status info. It’s pretty well documented, so I won’t go into detail here. -- Rob McBroom http://www.skurfer.com/

PostgreSQL 8.4 Monitoring using hobbit-plugins
by darc7983＠gmail.com 02 Apr '14

02 Apr '14

Hi everyone, I'm running Xymon 4.3.12 under GNU/Linux Debian Wheezy 7.4 Kernel 3.2.51-1 x86_64 GNU/Linux. I want to monitor the PostgreSQL database using hobbit -plugins , I installed the required dependency graph to query for PostgreSQL " libdbd -pg- perl" . Running the script ( from the client ) that is in the path "/usr/lib/hobbit/client/ext" I noticed that if you run queries fine, I noticed that within the script postgres say : You must also activate Postgresql statistics. See http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.1/interactive/monitoring-locks.html for how to enable this. Specifically, the following lines must exist in your postgresql.conf: stats_start_collector = true stats_block_level = true But is that true for PostgreSQL 8.1 to 8.3 , I checked on the official website of PostgreSQL and I changed the way to get the graphics for the following : track_activities = on track_counts = on track_functions = all Now I modified "/etc/hobbit/clientlaunch.d/postgres.cfg" being : [ postgres ] # DISABLED ENVFILE / etc / hobbit / hobbitclient.cfg CMD $ HOBBITCLIENTHOME / ext / postgres LOGFILE /var/log/xymon/hobbitclient.log INTERVAL 5m Although the graphics do not turn on anything. Hope you can help me . -- Dernier Rondón Linux Counter reg# 473239 Machine's counter reg# 381205

graphs not showing on column but are in trends
by neilsimmonds1808＠gmail.com 02 Apr '14

02 Apr '14

I've got a strange problem with a new graph. I've added the graphs.cfg entry and it's named the same as the column on the Xymon display [vs_stat] FNPATTERN vs_stat.(.*).rrd TITLE Connections YAXIS Connections DEF:conn at RRDIDX@=@RRDFN@:ds0:AVERAGE LINE1:conn at RRDIDX@#@COLOR@:@RRDPARAM@ Conn GPRINT:conn at RRDIDX@:LAST: %8.2lf %s (cur) GPRINT:conn at RRDIDX@:MAX: %8.2lf %s (max) GPRINT:conn at RRDIDX@:MIN: %8.2lf %s (min) GPRINT:conn at RRDIDX@:AVERAGE: %8.2lf %s (avg)\n -l 0 I've added it to TEST2RRD and GRAPHS in xymonserver.cfg (TEST2RRD entry is vs_stat=devmon and GRPAHS is vs_stat::1) All is working as expected except that the graphs are only showing in the trends column and not in the vs_stat column. I based all this work on the if_load definitions for a cisco 6509 from the standard devmon templates and that does show on the of_load column as well as the trends column but my new on doesn't. Has anyone any idea what the issue might be?
