graph a sum from different graphs
by tseglard＠wat.tv 23 Dec '10

23 Dec '10

Hello, I'm sorry for asking you this question again but I really can't figure how to graph a sum of values coming from other graphes. Basically I want to make a graph of the total bandwidth consumed by a pool of servers. For this I would like to use the values coming from the ifstat graph of each server. What will be the best solution ? As I said I asked this question before and got answer from two people but I was not able to have the proposed solution working. So if you have other ideas you're very welcome ! I thank you very much for your answers. Sincerly, ThomaS

Hi all I've recently noticed that the displayed time (top right hand corner) shows the local time (in my case +8UTC) when in main view and non-green but shows UTC time in Critical Systems and when viewing client status pages. Any ideas why this is the case? Thanks CC -- RHCE#805007969328369

External scripts for Xymon client on Xymon Server
by novosirj＠umdnj.edu 23 Dec '10

23 Dec '10

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I am not sure what is the correct way to add external scripts to a client instance running on a machine that houses a server. If you look in hobbitlaunch.cfg in the server's etc directory, you see: # "hobbitclient" runs the Xymon client. The client is installed # automatically when you install a Xymon server (presumably, you do # want to monitor the Xymon server ?), but there's no need to have two # hobbitlaunch instances running at the same time. So we'll just run it # from here. # Note: If you are using another client package, you should disable this # one. [hobbitclient] ENVFILE /opt/xymon-4.2.3/client/etc/hobbitclient.cfg NEEDS hobbitd CMD /opt/xymon-4.2.3/client/bin/hobbitclient.sh LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/hobbitclient.log INTERVAL 5m ...however, if I do this, it appears as if either none of the external scripts run, or if they do run, they don't write anything to the logfiles/do not get their information to the Xymon server program. Do I need to add the external scripts to hobbitlaunch.cfg instead of clientlaunch.cfg? Something else? Thanks in advance for any help! - -- - ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | |Ryan Novosielski - Sr. Systems Programmer |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _| |novosirj at umdnj.edu - 973/972.0922 (2-0922) \__/ Univ. of Med. and Dent.|IST/CST-Academic Svcs. - ADMC 450, Newark -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk0Se9kACgkQmb+gadEcsb5dZgCcCTI1Vo5bettyXsJmPVxvUCBn vvEAn1JPGf35Bp05ixzRkl1aGIqR9f46 =SXy3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Try asking on the regular xymon mailing list - xymon at xymon.com - since I know there are some HP/UX users out there. What errors do you get when you try to compile it ? And what compiler are you using ? I seem to recall the original HP/UX compiler has some problems, but gcc should work fine on this platform.

HP-UX 11iv3 memory reporting issue and fix
by EFlack＠thezenith.com 21 Dec '10

21 Dec '10

First I'd like to say thank you to Henrik and the other Xymon developers for all their hard work on this program. We are running Xymon 4.3.0 beta 2 client running on HP-UX 11iv3 Itanium with non default (4k) memory page sizes. We discovered a problem with Xymon memory reporting on HP-UX 11iv3 when we increased memory page sizes from 4k to 16k or 64k. The Xymon program hpux-meminfo located in ~client/bin has incorrect reporting with HP-UX 11iv3 Itanium, for example: On an HP-UX 11iv3 server with 32GB of memory (with about 15GB free) and 16k memory page size the hpux-meminfo program reports: Total:8190 #Looks like the included hpux-meminfo grabs the wrong output lines. Free:3328 Here is the complete output of swapinfo -tm: # swapinfo -tm Mb Mb Mb PCT START/ Mb TYPE AVAIL USED FREE USED LIMIT RESERVE PRI NAME dev 81920 0 81920 0% 0 - 1 /dev/vg00/lvol2 reserve - 3110 -3110 memory 97835 51005 46830 52% total 179755 54115 125640 30% - 0 - Xymon bug id #3134680 Here is a script we created to replace the hpux-meminfo binary that comes with Xymon 4.3.0 beta 2. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------ #!/usr/bin/ksh # 10 DEC 2010 Daniel Grahek # This script properly calculates memory values on HP-UX 11iv3 Itanium systems #This script replaces the binary hpux-meminfo in client/bin directory. #version 1.0 # Distributed under GPL v2 license.
