xymon client only showing conn trends info
by tshimada＠2advanced.com 17 Jan '12

Hello, I just reinstalled xymon 4.3.7 on Fedora 15 x86_64. The server shows all tags with no errors. When I finished installing a client (using the same 4.3.7) the client shows up on the ghost client so the hostname is correct and I added it to the host.cfg. However, client only shows conn, trends and info. How can I get the rest to show up? Thanks in advance. Tom

Email alerts questions
by nleskiw＠gmail.com 17 Jan '12

Hello, 2 quick questions: 1.) I was forced to run Xymon on a non-standard port. I set XYMONSERVERNAME in xymonserver.cfg to HOST:PORT, but the URLs pointing to XYmon are not showing the port, and as such they don't work. Is there a way to fix this? 2.) Any way to adjust the template for emails? Some of my team members have issues understanding what's broken... ( * I * understand just fine, but it looks like I'm going to have to, ahem, "simplify" it a bit if you catch my drift...) Thank you!

Hi, My XYMONZOS which is running on z/OS 1.12 System has been receiving S878 abends. This started when we upgraded from z/OS 1.9. We monitor our system using XYMON and its a major part of our operations. The S878 happen almost once or twice a day. Has anyone seen this? Does anyone know how we can fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You Joe Benedetto System Programmer Marist College Poughkeepsie NY 12601 Office:845-575-3208

We are already monitoring MQ Queues and MQ Channels but would like to know if it is possible to monitor MQ Listener status by adding it to the standard mq.sh script? If so what would we put in analysis.cfg to make this work?

Sending statusupdates to xymon using databasetriggers
by klaas.eenkhoorn＠vtspn.nl 13 Jan '12

Dear All, Is it possible to use databasetriggers and storedprocedures for sending statusupdates to xymon ? Example: Our DBA uses a database with status messages of his databases. Is it possible as soon as a record gets added to this message table a storedprocedure starts and forwards this message to xymon ? Met vriendelijke groet, Klaas D.

Help with monitoring processes on Linux

Take a look at http://tools.rebel-it.com.au/xymon-rclient/ - this runs on the xymon server and connects to the client system remotely to obtain the client data etc. I'm running this on our system to connect over SSH to numerous locked down linux based systems that we cannot install a full xymon client on to.

Hi I have a client machine that I am trying to monitor which is running RHEL 4.9 and has glibc version 2.3.4. When I try to run 'runclient.sh', it complains that it requires glibc 2.5 or better. I am not able to get glibc 2.5 or better from Red Hat. Can you please let me know how to overcome this issue? Thanks -- Sridhar

Poll/Test time
by kconnell＠ryerson.ca 13 Jan '12

13 Jan '12

Was wondering....any one using a smaller time to poll (do tests) than the default 5min ? I have my new Xymon server currently @ 3min....sometimes 5 min just seems to long when your waiting for the next poll and hoping a yellow or red event is going to clear... Other than a little more traffic and devices using a little more cpu cycles I don't see a draw back....

BUG: History button on "trends" page if column name changed
by bewhite＠fellowes.com 12 Jan '12

12 Jan '12

Hi all, I have found a real bug. If you set the xymonserver.cfg variable to change the name of the column for the "trends" column, the web page generation process adds a "HISTORY" button at the top of the new "trends" page under the new name. This bug exists since at least 4.3.0-0_beta2 and is still present in 4.3.7. If clicked, the button leads to nothing. .......Bruce Bruce White Senior Enterprise Systems Engineer | Phone: 1-630-671-5169 | Fax: 630-893-1648 | bewhite at fellowes.com | http://www.fellowes.com/ Disclaimer: The information contained in this message may be privileged and confidential and protected from disclosure.
