I am very interested in your integration efforts. How do you select what is going to be inserted in the ELK stack? All status messages that Xymon receives? And could you provide an example of the xymond_channel block in you task.cfg and the capture.sh? Tasks.cfg probably is something like: [es] ... CMD xymond_channel --channel=status /home/xymon/server/ext/capture.sh ... And the capture.sh contains some curl script to the ELK stack? Regards, Peter 2016-12-14 18:15 GMT+01:00 OUTTERYCK Francois <francois.outteryck at soprasteria.com<mailto:francois.outteryck at soprasteria.com>>: Hello, I just do a small work with Xymon in order to send status data to Elasticsearch. And with Kibana reporting is easy. How it work ? Simple : With capture of status message (xymond_channel --channel=status /home/xymon/server/ext/capture.sh ) script encode status message in json and send as document in elasticSearch. Example of Mapping document status in elasticsearch : "status"=> array( "properties"=>array( "ServerName"=> array("type"=> "string"), "Type"=> array("type"=> "string"), "Status"=> array("type"=> "string"), "LastChange"=> array("type"=> "date","format"=> "strict_date_optional_time"), "LogTime"=> array("type"=> "date","format"=> "strict_date_optional_time"), "ValidTime"=> array("type"=> "date","format"=> "strict_date_optional_time"), "AckTime"=> array("type"=> "date","format"=> "strict_date_optional_time"), "DisableTime"=> array("type"=> "date","format"=> "strict_date_optional_time"), "Sender"=> array("type"=> "string"), "DisableMSg"=> array("type"=> "string"), "Message"=> array("type"=> "string") ) ) All is done with a 130 lines script. So simple to integrate in existing environment and so powerfull usage of Xymon/elasticsearch/Kibana For those who don’t know kibana : https://www.elastic.co/products/kibana [cid:image001.png at 01D25EA3.F74489F0] _______________________________________________ Xymon mailing list Xymon at xymon.com<mailto:Xymon at xymon.com> http://lists.xymon.com/mailman/listinfo/xymon

[Patch] xymond_rrd crash when parsing Linux ifconfig data
by steve＠opendium.com 22 Feb '19

22 Feb '19

This patch addresses two problems: 1. For Linux clients, do_ifstat_rrd parses the ifconfig output using the regex: ([a-z0-9]+(_[0-9]+)?:*|lo:?)\s pickdata() is called like this: pickdata(bol, ifstat_linux_pcres[0], 1, &ifname) With a network interface name such as "foo1", the regex produces 2 results: 0: "foo1 " 1: "foo1" pickdata() discards result 0 and assigns result 1 ("foo1") to the ifname parameter as expected. With a network interface name such as "foo_1", the regex produces 3 results: 0: "foo_1 " 1: "foo_1" 2: "_1" pickdata() discards result 0, assigns result 1 ("foo_1") to the ifname parameter and then tries to assign result 2 ("_1") to the next parameter in the variable argument list. Since there it no such parameter, this results in a segmentation fault and xymond_rrd crashes. The attached patch adds a "num_args" parameter to pickdata() to tell it how many arguments are in the variable argument list and ensure it never rolls off the end of that list. 2. I have some clients with network interface names in the form "foo.5", "foo_bar" and "foo-bar" ("eth0.5" is especially common when eth0 is carrying an 802.1q trunk, for example). Xymon does not collect statistics on those network interfaces because they don't match the regex. This patch relaxes the regex a bit so that it matches these network interfaces. -- - Steve Hill Technical Director Opendium Online Safety / Web Filtering http://www.opendium.com Enquiries: sales at opendium.com +44-1792-824568 Support: support at opendium.com +44-1792-825748 Opendium Limited is a company registered in England and Wales.

Need help with upgrade from 4.3.17 to 4.3.20
by cleaver＠terabithia.org 17 Jul '18

17 Jul '18

Hmm. So far, the only way I've been able to reproduce this is by replacing the ScriptAlias directives with mere Alias's in the xymon.conf apache config. Has there been any change in the path you've used for the CGI directory since the previous version, or is there any chance that another Alias line is taking precedence over the ScriptAlias? Do you see anything in the apache access/error logs that indicates an error? -jc On Tue, May 19, 2015 10:37 am, Cortes, Manny wrote: > Having the same problem after installing 4.3.20 on both Ubuntu server > 14.04 and 15.04. > > Thanks, > > > Manuel A Cortes > > Systems Programmer III > > [IBM_Cert] > > IBM Certified System Administrator AIX 7 > > Information Services > > 321-841-6534 > > Orlandohealth.com > > Facebook.com/orlandohealth > > Youtube.com/orlandohealth > > @orlandohealth on twitter > > > > 1414 Kuhl Avenue.,MP136 > > Orlando, Florida 32806 > > From: Xymon [mailto:xymon-bounces at xymon.com] On Behalf Of Asif Iqbal > Sent: Tuesday, May 19, 2015 12:59 PM > To: J.C.

Interval for the combostatus task
by john.thurston＠alaska.gov 29 Jun '18

29 Jun '18

I use some combo-tests, and the delay in their reaction is sometimes a hassle. I just looked in the tasks.cfg and see I have my combostatus task set to run every 5 mins. 5 mins is the frequency of my xymonnet task, but many of my combo tests don't rely on xymonnet. I'm thinking I should shorten the interval on combostatus to 2 minutes, and thereby reduce the latency of those test results. Can anyone relate to me horror stories or good reasons I should not shorten this interval? -- Do things because you should, not just because you can.

xymondXboard syntax limitation - XMH tags?
by john.thurston＠alaska.gov 27 Jun '18

27 Jun '18

The xymondboard message type is shown in the docs with the following syntax: > xymondboard [CRITERIA] [fields=FIELDLIST] The xymondXboard message type is shown in the docs with the following: > Retrieves an XML string with the summary of all status logs as for the "xymondboard" command. but it looks to me like Xboard does not support the 'fields=' capabilities of board. I always get the same fields in my XML, regardless of how I craft my message. My quick look in source-code makes me think the values returned by Xboard are limited and hard-coded. I'd like to use Xboard, but I'd also like to have it return some XMH tags (like XMH_DGNAME, XMH_DISPLAYNAME). Can anyone suggest a way to do this? -- Do things because you should, not just because you can. John Thurston 907-465-8591 John.Thurston at alaska.gov Department of Administration State of Alaska

> First thing I've found is the xymon2json wants python3. I only had python2 installed. I added python3.4 but that did nothing. ok I'll add this requirement in the README. > As it stands, it doesn't work at all in Internet Explorer. it sure does, my colleagues are using it. > I do get the menu, reload and eye in the corner using firefox. The menu comes up but no servers or tests actually come up. is xymon2json producing the JSON? Open its URL in the browser and see if you get the output. Once this works, the JS interface will either show output or an error message. good luck, -Christian
