Question about the data message format and rrd
by klaas.eenkhoorn＠vtspn.nl 04 Apr '14

04 Apr '14

Dear All, What format must a data message have to get rrd data from a test into a graphic ? I have been testing this functionality but have not been succesfull so far. The test i have made counts the total number of users on the system according to there first three characters of there username. Like: abc : 20 def : 15 ghi : 0 So far i've used the ncv option to generate a statistical graphic over time but now i would like to use the data message format. I've constructed the following data message: [statistics.rrd] DS:abc:GAUGE:600:0:U 20 DS:def:GAUGE:600:0:U 15 DS:ghi:GAUGE:600:0:U 0 >From the client the message will be send with: "data application.vmware.local.trends `cat /tmp/message`" Result: Sometimes the file statistics.rrd in ~/data/rrd/application.vmware.local gets an update sometimes not. And if it gets filled or created the value will be empty. This is determent by using 'rrdtool dump statistics.rrd' The version is xymon 4.3.12. What do i do wrong ? Met vriendelijke groet, Klaas D.

Suggestions for tablet solution for Xymon monitoring
by jlaidman＠rebel-it.com.au 04 Apr '14

Hi If you had a budget to buy some tables for support staff, what would be your "solution". I know of (but have no experience with) an Android Xymon app. I've found nothing for IOS. But perhaps it shouldn't matter what the device is, as long as it has a reasonable screen size and a browser, and probably SIM slot for GSM/LTE data. Cheers Jeremy

4.3.17 SunOS Client Procs Problem

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.

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/
