files, ports, procs saying not defined

in $XYMONHOME/server/etc/hobbit-clients.cfg on the xymon server, I've added some tests that dont seem to be reflecting in the URL for xymon. Here is a snippet of the file: Just above the default section I've added a port test for port 389. HOST=ldap.doc.state.vt.us PORT "LOCAL=%([.:]389)$" state=LISTEN TEXT=ldap DEFAULT # These are the built-in defaults. UP 1h LOAD 5.0 10.0 DISK * 90 95 MEMPHYS 100 101 MEMSWAP 50 80 MEMACT 90 97 But I still get the white non-smiley face. When I click on the icon I get to the next screen which says "No port checks defined" and below that is the current result of a netstat. How can I get a green smiley for my port! And this is just a test, I realize there is a specific test for ldap connectivity. Thanks! Joseph Kezar No port checks defined"

BB-Hosts DOWNTIME
by MFisher＠hra.com 29 Apr '09

29 Apr '09

Hi all! I am still to this day having issues getting the DOWNTIME parameters to work. I have tried everything under the sun but ultimetely i have fallen back to what is written in the BB-Hosts Man page.. DOWNTIME=*:0000:0200,*:0230:2359 This basically says that the host is DOWN between 2AM and 2:30AM......Correct? Kind of an @ssbackwards way of looking at it but from what i can gather, you just specify the time the server should be UP...right? Its not working...i still get alerts and the page still stays red..not blue as expected... I have also tried DOWNTIME=*:0200:0230 but as expected...that fails as well.. Anybody have any insight into this...im sure im missing something stupid... THANKS!

alert if up
by john＠sackheads.org 29 Apr '09

I thought there was a way to do this.... but in some cases, i'd really like an alert to fire if certain IP addresses _become_ pingable. Is this possible in bb-hosts or only with some alert scripting?

XYMON version 4.2.3 The error: uname reports 8 installed processors, but prtdiag shows only 4 present. Some processors seem to be offline or problematic !!! For Solaris server with more than 4 processors running. bb-cpu2.sh can't count more than 4 processors with comma delimiter. Look at the prtdiag -v from 4 processors machine vs. 8 processors machine below ========================= CPUs =============================================== Run E$ CPU CPU Brd CPU MHz MB Impl.

once more linecount
by martin.flemming＠desy.de 28 Apr '09

28 Apr '09

Hi ! Since i know that the linecount-function in client-launch.cfg counts the pattern even in the hole logfile, i wonder what people do in the situation of logrotate ... what does it means for the rrd-file or the graph, going down to zero and starts again to count ? On the other hand i want to count the pattern UID to count all jobs are done ... my client-launch.cfg [k5cron01] linecount:/var/log/debug Jobs UID On the client-side i see the right counting [k5cron01] /usr/lib/hobbit/client/tmp # grep Jobs msg.k5cron01.txt Jobs: 2322 But the graph gots no value .. and in the rrd-file stands follows .. rrdtool dump lines.\,var\,log\,debug#Jobs.rrd <rrd> <version> 0003 </version> <step> 300 </step>  <lastupdate> 1240349502 </lastupdate>  <ds> <name> count </name> <type> DERIVE </type> <minimal_heartbeat> 600 </minimal_heartbeat> <min> 0.0000000000e+00 </min> <max> NaN </max>  <last_ds> 2322 </last_ds> <value> 3.3774834437e+00 </value> <unknown_sec> 0 </unknown_sec> </ds>  <rra> <cf> AVERAGE </cf> <pdp_per_row> 1 </pdp_per_row>  <params> <xff> 5.0000000000e-01 </xff> </params> <cdp_prep> <ds> <primary_value> 3.2008830022e-02 </primary_value> <secondary_value> 0.0000000000e+00 </secondary_value> <value> NaN </value> <unknown_datapoints> 0 </unknown_datapoints> </ds> </cdp_prep> <database>  <row><v> NaN </v></row>  <row><v> NaN </v></row>  <row><v> NaN </v></row> What's going wrong by me ? thanks & cheers Martin
