Non host based custom test
by indymichaelb＠gmail.com 13 Jun '12

13 Jun '12

We wrote a custom test that monitors the results of all our email servers reputations. We don't want to break the test apart by individual mail server, but rather, have one dot in xymon for the combined reputation of all our mail servers. Is it possible to create a "row" to send this status message to? Added the following to hosts.cfg {code} page Mail Mail 0.0.0.0 Mail # noconn {code} Which created the Page but not a host (row) Sent the following status {code} echo /usr/lib64/xymon/server/bin/bb localhost "status Mail.Reputation yellow `/bin/date` ${msg} " {code} but still don't no host/row appears Suggestions?

Remote Xymon server
by Neil.Simmonds＠express-gifts.co.uk 13 Jun '12

13 Jun '12

Hi all, We are looking at adding Xymon monitoring at another of our sites soon. Ideally we'll just configure the agents to point at our Xymon server however I'm wondering if we might be better setting up a remote server. My main concern is the volume of traffic but considering that we will be looking at running the agents in Central mode I'm wondering what the difference will be in the amount of data being sent. Will a remote server reduce the amount of traffic, given that we still want to be able to see the data on our main server.

I have a page that has some hosts grouped together using the group syntax in hosts.cfg.... My question is, can I add some kind of visible dividing line between grouped hosts ?

Hi, All I am new to this forum and also newbie to the monitoring.

Could anyone please send me the link from where I can download Xymon packages and start install ? Is there any tutorials out there that I can follow for server, client installation, configuration and tests ? Thanks Raf

Xymon inside OpenVZ
by camis＠mweb.co.za 12 Jun '12

12 Jun '12

Hi All, On a fresh install of CentOS 6.2 (inside OpenVZ), I'm having graphs looking like this. The RRD dump / data look fine and graphing appears to be working correctly. Looking at what a normal graph looks like, it appears that its text that is actually garbled. Anyone have any ideas of where to start looking? Everything else looks fine and there are no obvious errors in the logs. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/411/bbgicgjf.jpg/ Regards, Cami

xymwebhikey
by jglouisjr＠gmail.com 11 Jun '12

11 Jun '12

Hi Everyone, In trying to resolve a trends graph issue it was stated to "set the XYMWEBHIKEY" variable. I haven't been able to find documentation on what and where this is set at. I tried to set it to TRUE in xymonserver.cfg but that doesn't seem to do anything. If anyone could expand on what was meant by setting this value that would be great. Thanks, Jim -- To be is to do = Immanuel Kant To do is to be = Descartes. Do be do be do = Frank Sinatra

CGI error log
by KK1051＠att.com 11 Jun '12

11 Jun '12

Folks of Xymon, I have Xymon 4.3.7 I am getting to the last of my issues and clean up from switching over from Bigbrother 2 years ago. I see a lot of these errors in my CGI error log. 2012-06-11 08:09:40 showgraph Sendto failed: Destination address required 2012-06-11 08:09:40 showgraph Sendto failed: Destination address required 2012-06-11 08:09:49 showgraph Sendto failed: Destination address required 2012-06-11 08:09:49 showgraph Sendto failed: Destination address required 2012-06-11 08:09:49 showgraph Sendto failed: Destination address required I have seen it in every version I have run. I had not address it in the past as things seemed to be working just fine. As I said I am getting to the end of my list of issues. I am sure it has got something to do with the environment. I see it when I view any page that has rrd graphs. I have not had much luck chasing it. And thought I would hit up the group to see if this is something others have seen. Thanks. Kevin H.
