Hi, Is there anyone who knows if the bb-hosts-1.3.cgi for editing hosts.cfg via web-interface is found in a newer version? Or something similar (not MAGMA)? Regards, Carl Melgaard

I was just thinking the same and I found the XMH_ variables, that also contain the page titles. I haven't tested it yet for subpages, but I think it'll work. You can find all of them on the manpage for xymon-xmh.

Debian 8 assistance
by vonlintel＠gmail.com 02 May '17

02 May '17

I have installed xymon via apt-get, and that seemed to go well. I can see the xymon service is running with systemd. Apache is up and running, verified by the normal apache start page. It also appears apache knows about the xymon directory but permissions stop us from viewing the pages. The directory domain.com/xymon/ results in a 403 and domain.com/xymon/xymon.html the same. I did manually enable the mod_rewrite for apache (as noted in the debian6 install steps) as the package noted errors on those steps. In the /var/lib/xymon/www directory we have two directories www-data group has access to (rep and snap). The following files and directories are owned by xymon user critical.html html/ index.html nongreen.html notes/ red.html wml/ xymon.html Root owns gifs/ help/ menu/ With my eroded linux knowledge it seems I should change the grp ownership to www-data for all the contents of /var/lib/xymon/www. Is this so? Other changes I might need to make? I have not made any changes to the xymonserver.cfg. Thank you

Multiple graphs for one test
by xymon＠asitshouldbe.com 26 Apr '17

26 Apr '17

Adding the --multigraphs=jboss option to the cgioptions.cfg did not fix the problem. I downloaded the latest version of Xymon and looked through the release notes. It says: "Which RRD graphs are displayed on a status page can now be customized on a per-test basis through the use of environment variables. For example, GRAPHS_cpu="la,vmstat1" will cause an additional graph to be shown on cpu tests. (Submitted by Werner Maier)" That feature was added as part of version 4.3.20. I have 4.3.17. So, the fix to my problem is to upgrade. Thanks to everyone who offered suggestions.

Multiple graphs for one test
by xymon＠asitshouldbe.com 26 Apr '17

26 Apr '17

Thanks for the information. I think I followed what you said, but I seem to be missing something along the way. I have this as part of the TEST2RRD definition in the xymonserver.cfg file: jboss=ncv I also have this in the xymonserver.cfg file: SPLITNCV_jboss="*:GAUGE" GRAPHS_jboss="jboss,jboss1" Xymon is creating the jboss,*.rrd files as expected. In the graphs.cfg file, I have two graphs defined as shown below. The first one graphs two data points and the second one graphs three. Xymon only displays the graph named "jboss". If I flip the names of the two graph definitions ([jboss] becomes [jboss1] and [jboss1] becomes [jboss]), Xymon still only shows one graph, but now it shows the one with three data points instead of two. (Whichever one defined as [jboss] is the one displayed.) If I view the graph in my browser, I'm able to manually change the "service=ncv:jboss" in the URL to "service=ncv:jboss1" and see the other graph. So the data collection is working, the graph definitions are OK, and the graphs are being generated. The only thing left is to get both graphs to display on the same page at the same time. In case it matters, this is Xymon 4.3.17 running on Fedora 20.

Storing / retrieving metadata and the 'data' message type
by zak.beck＠accenture.com 26 Apr '17

26 Apr '17

Hi I want to save some information about a client in Xymon and retrieve it later, without using a status column. In my case this is non-numeric data for certain servers only, the version string from SQL Server. It appears I can send this to Xymon using a 'data' message (http://xymon.sourceforge.net/xymon/help/manpages/man1/xymon.1.html) data HOSTNAME.DATANAME<newline><additional text> The "data" message allows tools to send data about a host, without it appearing as a column on the Xymon webpages. This is used, for example, to report statistics about a host, e.g. vmstat data, which does not in itself represent something that has a red, yellow or green identity. It is used by RRD bottom-feeder modules, among others. In Xymon, data messages are by default processed only by the xymond_rrd<http://xymon.sourceforge.net/xymon/help/manpages/man8/xymond_rrd.8.html>(8) module. If you want to handle data-messages using an external application, you may want to enable the xymond_filestore<http://xymon.sourceforge.net/xymon/help/manpages/man8/xymond_filestore.8.ht…>(8) module for data-messages, to store data-messages in a format compatible with how the Big Brother daemon does. My question is, how do I retrieve this data at a later date? I've sent some data messages with this format: data hostname.sqlversion Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 (SP3) - 10.50.6220.0 (X64) Mar 19 2015 12:32:14 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.1 <X64> (Build 7601: Service Pack 1) (Hypervisor) I thought I might be able to get it back like this: xymon <serverIP> 'query hostname.sqlversion' --response or this: xymon <serverIP> 'xymondlog hostname.sqlversion' --response The above do work with 'status' messages (e.g. cpu), but not 'data'. The man page quoted above suggests I need something to 'process' the message? Do I have to enable filestore and then write a query script to read the files?

Multiple graphs for one test
by norbert.kriegenburg＠de.ibm.com 26 Apr '17

26 Apr '17

What Galen described is the default way to go to add more graphs to a test page. This will add every graph at the end of the page sequentially. If you have more graphs to show i found it not so useful, it will create huge pages with a lot of scrolling necessary. But if you have your graph definitions already, and you can see your graphs by just calling the link directly (like http://X.X.X.X/xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=HOST&service=YOURGRAPH&graph_wid… ) you can include these links into your mytest output directly. Either i include the image and link into the test page output where it fits into the content, or i create a table with images and links to show several graphs at once. F.e. a table with cpu and memory graphs together with some WebSphere values: <table> <tr valign="top"> <td> <A HREF=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=loadall&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&action=menu "><IMG BORDER=0 SRC=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=loadall&graph_width=350&graph_height=100&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&graph=hourly " ALT="xymon graph"></A> </td> <td> <A HREF=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=la&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&action=menu "><IMG BORDER=0 SRC=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=la&graph_width=350&graph_height=100&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&graph=hourly " ALT="xymon graph"></A> </td> <td> <A HREF=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=memory&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&action=menu "><IMG BORDER=0 SRC=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=memory&graph_width=350&graph_height=100&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&graph=hourly " ALT="xymon graph"></A> </td> </tr> <tr valign="top"> <td> <A HREF=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=websphereJVM_UsedHeap&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&action=menu "><IMG BORDER=0 SRC=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=websphereJVM_UsedHeap&graph_width=350&graph_height=100&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&graph=hourly " ALT="xymon graph"></A> </td> <td> <A HREF=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=websphereSession_LIVE_COUNT&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&action=menu "><IMG BORDER=0 SRC=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=websphereSession_LIVE_COUNT&graph_width=350&graph_height=100&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&graph=hourly " ALT="xymon graph"></A> </td> <td> <A HREF=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=websphereJDBC_jdbclhcms_ConnsInUse&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&action=menu "><IMG BORDER=0 SRC=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=websphereJDBC_jdbclhcms_ConnsInUse&graph_width=350&graph_height=100&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&graph=hourly " ALT="xymon graph"></A> </td> </tr> <tr valign="top"> <td> <A HREF=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=websphereJDBC_jdbclhconf_ConnsInUse&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&action=menu "><IMG BORDER=0 SRC=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=websphereJDBC_jdbclhconf_ConnsInUse&graph_width=350&graph_height=100&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&graph=hourly " ALT="xymon graph"></A> </td> <td> <A HREF=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=websphereJDBC_jdbclhrep_ConnsInUse&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&action=menu "><IMG BORDER=0 SRC=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=websphereJDBC_jdbclhrep_ConnsInUse&graph_width=350&graph_height=100&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&graph=hourly " ALT="xymon graph"></A> </td> <td> <A HREF=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=websphereJDBC_jdbcrelusrDS_ConnsInUse&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&action=menu "><IMG BORDER=0 SRC=" /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh?host=hostname&service=websphereJDBC_jdbcrelusrDS_ConnsInUse&graph_width=350&graph_height=100&disp=hostname&nostale&color=green&graph=hourly " ALT="xymon graph"></A> </td> </tr> </table> Consider the use of width and height settings to tune the size of the graph table to fit into the output page. Sometimes i create static pages (with Xymon header and footer of course, 'xymonpage' will be your friend) with those tables, and link them directly (by title keyword) in hosts.cfg. Very handy if you want to have the same graphs in one view for a 4 node cluster (it will show the working/not working loadbalancing immediately...). If i have a test with more then several values with graphs i prefer just to add the link and not the image, to avoid oversized pages (sometimes i have several dozens of values at one page, all with rrd and graphs behind).

The information is showing up on Xymon as expected. I'd like to be able to graph each piece of information separately, but on the same page. Is that possible? For a simplified example, mytest returns these two pieces of information: threads connections I'm using SPLITNCV to store the results in separate rrd files. That's working. I'm currently graphing the threads data. I want to graph the connections information on the same mytest page, but in a separate graph. In other words, I want to have multiple graphs using different rrd data files appear on the same Xymon test page. Is this possible? Does anyone have a quick sample from graphs.cfg and xymonserver.cfg that can point me in the right direction? Again, this is a simplified example. The actual test is returning 27 different pieces of information. Some of those are related to each other, some are related to other things. They're all related to the same application, which is why I'd like them to all appear on the same page. Each graph will likely have 2-4 different lines. Thanks.

Multiple graphs for one test

I have a custom test (mytest) that returns multiple pieces of information. The information is showing up on Xymon as expected. I'd like to be able to graph each piece of information separately, but on the same page. Is that possible? For a simplified example, mytest returns these two pieces of information: threads connections I'm using SPLITNCV to store the results in separate rrd files. That's working. I'm currently graphing the threads data. I want to graph the connections information on the same mytest page, but in a separate graph. In other words, I want to have multiple graphs using different rrd data files appear on the same Xymon test page. Is this possible? Does anyone have a quick sample from graphs.cfg and xymonserver.cfg that can point me in the right direction? Again, this is a simplified example. The actual test is returning 27 different pieces of information. Some of those are related to each other, some are related to other things. They're all related to the same application, which is why I'd like them to all appear on the same page. Each graph will likely have 2-4 different lines. Thanks. Ron
