If you can give me the output of the [ps] section of the client data, I can take a look at merging support into xymon-procmem. J

bad processing of client data on the server
by Scot.Kreienkamp＠la-z-boy.com 24 Jun '16

A few weeks ago there was a thread on this list about xymon confusing the client reports by reporting results from one client on another client entirely. I had been watching strange things happen to my Xymon instance occasionally and just now caught the first irrefutable proof that was indeed happening in my environment. The ports test page for retv6034 contains the results from another server entirely, which can be proven by comparing the text of the ports page with the client data report. Xymon server has obviously gotten this wrong in processing somewhere as the client data brought back through the client data link at the bottom of the ports test page contains the correct data. The two servers are multiple hops away from both each other and the Xymon server, and the Xymon server load at the time was .1 and 96% idle CPU usage. Here's a snippet from the ports test page from retv6034 at the time, which was reporting red due to missing ports that were being monitored on retv6034: TCP 10.103.1.63:135 10.1.1.34:40773 ESTABLISHED TCP 10.103.1.63:135 10.1.2.23:57996 ESTABLISHED TCP 10.103.1.63:135 10.1.7.55:12679 ESTABLISHED TCP 10.103.1.63:135 10.1.7.55:12722 ESTABLISHED TCP 10.103.1.63:135 10.1.7.56:20008 ESTABLISHED TCP 10.103.1.63:135 10.112.1.62:52119 ESTABLISHED TCP 10.103.1.63:135 10.125.1.63:23527 ESTABLISHED TCP 10.103.1.63:139 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING And here's the entire ports section from the client data report for retv6034. This is the correct data for what should have been on the page: [ports] Active Internet connections (servers and established) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:8005 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:199 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:8009 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:60111 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:111 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:8080 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:35060 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:53 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:53 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:22 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:953 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:33972 10.1.1.200:1984 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.242:15971 FIN_WAIT2 tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.240:7519 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.240:63015 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.242:64431 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.240:32815 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.240:10363 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.241:54788 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.242:54629 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.242:25603 FIN_WAIT2 tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.240:52365 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:44018 10.1.2.50:514 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.241:15201 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.242:10447 FIN_WAIT2 tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.241:1043 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.240:17144 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.241:13427 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.241:4912 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:33974 10.1.1.200:1984 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.240:52295 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.241:18884 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:913 10.170.1.220:2049 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:58396 10.1.2.54:2003 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.1.1.200:50195 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.240:3119 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.241:54730 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:33976 10.1.1.200:1984 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.242:10171 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.240:42249 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.241:6831 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.241:51631 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:58394 10.1.2.54:2003 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.242:63087 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:33978 10.1.1.200:1984 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.242:20554 FIN_WAIT2 tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:49506 10.1.7.75:389 ESTABLISHED tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.240:47234 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.242:47185 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.241:50056 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 10.170.1.114:8080 10.170.1.240:26500 TIME_WAIT tcp 0 0 :::111 :::* LISTEN tcp 0 0 :::44688 :::* LISTEN tcp 0 0 :::36886 :::* LISTEN udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:993 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:995 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:878 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:110 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:111 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:631 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 10.170.1.114:123 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 127.0.0.1:123 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:123 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:647 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:143 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:783 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 127.0.0.1:921 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:161 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 10.170.1.114:53 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 127.0.0.1:53 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:40131 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:52420 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:847 0.0.0.0:* udp 0 0 :::878 :::* udp 0 0 :::111 :::* udp 0 0 :::123 :::* udp 0 0 :::35899 :::* udp 0 0 :::35906 :::* Scot Kreienkamp | Senior Systems Engineer | La-Z-Boy Corporate One La-Z-Boy Drive | Monroe, Michigan 48162 | * 734-384-6403 | | * 7349151444 | * Scot.Kreienkamp at la-z-boy.com<mailto:%7BE-mail%7D> www<http://www.la-z-boy.com/>.la-z-boy.com<http://www.la-z-boy.com/> | facebook.<https://www.facebook.com/lazboy>com<https://www.facebook.com/lazboy>/<https://www.facebook.com/lazboy>lazboy<http://facebook.com/lazboy> | twitter.com/lazboy<https://twitter.com/lazboy> | youtube.com/<https://www.youtube.com/user/lazboy>lazboy<https://www.youtube.com/user/lazboy> [cid:lzbVertical_hres.jpg] This message is intended only for the individual or entity to which it is addressed.

Custom Tests
by joshuasocrates＠gmail.com 23 Jun '16

23 Jun '16

Hello again Xymon members, I'm very new to both Unix systems and Xymon, and I have to say learning Xymon on a Unix system is currently leaving me pretty stumped for a lot of things. Right now I am attempting to create a script that will read the past 20 minutes of a log file, and report an array of values back to Xymon. I am looking for the end result to have a "green face" if less than five zeroes are detected, a yellow from 5 - 10, and a red from 10 and up. I have the script written, but I am unsure how to implement it into Xymon and have the results printed out when I click on the face beneath the test column. Results to be viewed after clicking the test column are in the format as followed: TIMESTAMP DATANAME DATATYPE FREQUENCY TIMEFRAME With respective info included. So how would I go around formatting the end result of a test to look like this when you clicked for more information? Cheers all! Joshua H

Reload error
by joshuasocrates＠gmail.com 22 Jun '16

22 Jun '16

I've been getting an error with Xymon since I edited the host page last, and for the life of me I cannot figure out why. Error is as follows: -> Recipient 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xx', timeout 15 -> 1st line: 'config hosts.cfg' Cannot load hosts.cfg from xymond, code 7 Failed to load from xymond, reverting to file-load Whoops! Failed to send a message (timeout) And this repeats for a while in /alert.log. As a result, my xymon page is currently saying it is still... Fri Jun 17 07:35:35 2016. I would like to avoid posting my actual hosts.cfg page, but if it comes to that I will do so. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've compared my hosts.cfg file to others I can find, and I don't see any reason why there should be errors. Thanks, Joshua

Intelligent CPU Load Settings
by howe.bill＠gmail.com 21 Jun '16

21 Jun '16

Xymon'ers, Is there any planned functionality to be able to dynamically set a xymon client's LOAD alert settings based upon how many processors it has? The current static defaults are not too helpful, and hand editing an entry in /etc/xymon/analysis/*.cfg for every server just shouldn't have to be done. _*Ideally*_ It would be best if along with the "top" view that is reported by clients, they also reported their CPU count (either with "nproc" or "grep -c proc /proc/cpuinfo") Then the CPU count could be shown on client's "cpu" service page. <= Critical information when determining if load is a problem or not. Since the count would then be reported to and available on the xymon server, it could then be possible to set warnings and criticals based off of CPU count. (IE Warn at a load number equal to CPU count, Critical at a number equal to CPU count x 1.5) Regards, -- Bill Howe howe.bill at gmail.com

Xymon Graph propagated with -nan
by Foster.Patch＠accuweather.com 17 Jun '16

17 Jun '16

Hello, I have a custom monitor that I created which will monitor connections and requests. (http://pastebin.com/bdLZfFAW) The monitor works properly, however the graphing does not. This image displays what is wrong with the graph: http://imgur.com/ZFKkPYs. I have also attached my rrd dump of this monitor. (http://pastebin.com/CRadmAHu) Finally, attached is the graph definition for the test, located in graphs.cfg (http://pastebin.com/zX1HNi3p) I know the issue here is that the last_ds is picking up the values as "U", which is bad, but I don't know what to do about it. Any help would be appreciated, thanks, Foster Patch Web Server Technician AccuWeather

Hello All, I am getting following error after installing Xymon and trying to access xymon URL. Forbidden You don't have permission to access /xymon on this server. ________________________________ Apache/2.4.18 (Ubuntu) Server at 10.207.12.135 Port 80 Appreciate any help. I have apache2 (Ubuntu version) installed and web server processes are running under www-data UNIX user. Xymon web directory is owned by xymon UNIX user, however with 755 permission. Hence I do not see any issue with www-data user having access to xymon web directories. Is any other security settings that needs to be done? Thanks in advance.
