Alert dependencies
by m.stark＠compositiv.com 27 Oct '14

27 Oct '14

Hi, is it possible to define dependencies for alerts? I saw following problem. If Router X is down all Services behind that router will be notified. That's very annoying and I want to prevent that. Notifying me, that Router X is down is enough. Same for host connections. If a host is down I just want to get the host down alert. Furthermore is there a feature like "don't notifiy me if host/Service was red in <period>"? I did not found suitable options for that so far. I hope you can help me out.

Hobbit Server Overload Due To Windows Event Logs

We are at xymon version 4.3.3 and bbwin is at 0.13.

alarms and recoveries
by screin＠gmail.com 27 Oct '14

27 Oct '14

Hi, I'd like to ask your help, what would suggest to my situation. I'm trying to set up xymon to send alarms to netcool. HOST=%wmail.*.xyz.net COLOR=red,yellow,purple EXSERVICE=ports,procs,msgs SCRIPT /etc/xymon/send_alarm.sh "WMAIL" FORMAT=plain RECOVERED When disk is getting full, it sends a warning at warning level. Then i was decreasing free space, it hit the PANIC level, alarm became critical. Then I made some space, to clear the alarms and lets see what happens. When it recovered, I only got recovery for critical alarm, but for the netcool, I need to send a recovery also to the WARNING alarm. Is this possible to do this by default, or I need to develop a script for it? Like when sending recovery to CRITICAL, send a recovery also to the MAJOR alarm? Thanks!

Problem with xymon on cgi on Ubuntu 14.04
by pechter＠gmail.com 23 Oct '14

23 Oct '14

I get the following error when I press the http column header on the xymon display on localhost or press on the red http on the line for the xymon server... The rest is running fine after the changes for the 2.2->2.4 apache... I think. #!/bin/sh # This is a wrapper for the Xymon svcstatus.cgi script . /usr/lib/xymon/server/etc/cgioptions.cfg exec /usr/lib/xymon/server/bin/svcstatus.cgi $CGI_SVC_OPTS root at T61:/etc/apache2/mods-available# a2enmod cgid Module cgid already enabled Any thoughts? -- Digital had it then. Don't you wish you could buy it now! pechter-at-gmail.com http://xkcd.com/705/

update to AIX client script
by stef.coene＠docum.org 23 Oct '14

23 Oct '14

Hi, In the older version of the AIX client script, the df command was modified so it uses the filtered output of the mount command to only include local filesystems. This is removed in the newer client. This is the modified script (sorry for the line breaks, but the mount command is the modified part of the script): echo "[df]" # The sed stuff is to make sure lines are not split into two. df -Ik `mount | awk '$3~/jfs/ {printf $2 " "}'` | sed -e '/^[^ ][^ ]*$/{ N s/[ ]*\n[ ]*/ / }' echo "[inode]" /usr/sysv/bin/df -i `mount | awk '$3~/jfs/ {printf $2 " "}'` | sed -e 's!Mount Dir!Mount_Dir!' | awk ' NR<2 { printf "%-20s %10s %10s %10s %10s %s\n", $2, $5, $3, $4, $6, "Mounted on" } NR>=2 && $5>0 { printf "%-20s %10d %10d %10d %10s %s\n", $2, $5, $3, $4, $6, $1} '

Good afternoon and notice you already check the file and if is correctly aimed, and pass the error that told me he could not find the file, the problem is that I get nothing on the page of Xymon ie not aparace tag cpu2 that indicated, I think the error is in the body of the program, I think there are several versions of the script cpu2.sh that comes as a big brother-cpu2-3_3.sh /bb, could send the file and tell me if you find anything in the the program please body, because review log files and did not mark any error. I'm implementing it for several versions of solaris. Thanks for the support. Greetings José Trinidad Álvarez Aguilar Av. Epigmenio Gonzalez No. 2, Col.

Squidworks migration
by droark＠intellinetcorp.com 22 Oct '14

22 Oct '14

Hello, I am migrating someone from the Squidworks appliance over to a CentOS 6.5 server. Has anyone had success migrating Xymon data from this appliance, and if so is it more than just installing Xymon server and moving the RRD files over? On Squidworks, the Xymon root is located at /var/www/xymon. The RRD files are in /var/www/xymon/data/rrd/MAG/. I don't see a separate database for Xymon like I do for Cacti, so I'm assuming there are no database operations that need to take place. Any help or more successful Google-fu is appreciated. Thanks, Devin -- Devin Roark | Systems Administrator | IntelliNet Corporation 216-706-1070 | droark at intellinetcorp.com<mailto:droark at intellinetcorp.com> | 1255 Euclid Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44115
