Looking at the archive, I find this last cropped up in 2005 but I didnt see any extensive followup. I really dont know anything about this OS, but I have been challenged to monitor a couple of instances of it, does anyone have any tips or experience they can share with me? Thanks -- Andy

xymonnet blocking
by john.thurston＠alaska.gov 20 Sep '18

20 Sep '18

We've run xymon for years, and BB for years before that. We've recently bumped into a potential problem with xymonnet. In the middle of the night, all of our tests populated by xymonnet went purple. We think we've tracked the problem, and attribute it to an ldap query which took too long to respond. It looks like xymonnet just stopped while it waited for this query to complete. While it was waiting on this response, none of the other xymonnet tests were being performed. The man for xymonnet indicates there is a --timeout=N which determines how long to wait for a service to accept a connection. Is there some parameter which will control how long xymonnet can try to get an answer after connecting? -- Do things because you should, not just because you can.

NOPROPYELLOW ignored for one test
by doughnut＠doughnut.net 19 Sep '18

19 Sep '18

I'm having problems with NOPROPYELLOW but only for one test. It seems to completely ignore just that one. Factors: * NOPROPYELLOW is successfully being applied to other tests. * There is no change when this is the only NOPROPYELLOW host or one of many. * There is no change if I use NOPROPYELLOW:+mycustomtest or NOPROPYELLOW:mycustomtest. * I am not using --nopropyellow option to xymongen. * It fails when used on the .default. or the specific host line (or both). * This test is run on one host which reports on behalf of many others. * I've verified that the test name is correct using xymondboard. sudo -u xymon xymoncmd xymon localhost "xymondboard test=mycustomtest" Any suggestions for my next step in debugging?

SNMP Traps - We are converting to Xymon from BB
by glh.forums＠gmail.com 18 Sep '18

Hi Jason, I think you need to provide some more information. What are you using in BB to catch, decode, and react to the traps? How is it configured?

Help, information about ssl certificates

Even if each site has it's own dedicated cert, a la NamedVirtualHosts?

Help, information about ssl certificates
by v.jekimov＠cominder.eu 18 Sep '18

18 Sep '18

Hello, I discovered when I check some web pages, I get wrong information about ssl certificate. For example, When Xymon get information about ssl certificate for this web page https://attistibaipar.lv/ we see this information about ssl certificate: SSL certificate for https://attistibaipar.lv/ expired 375 days ago Server certificate: subject:/CN=7spiritcocktails.com start date: 2017-06-09 00:00:00 GMT expire date:2017-09-07 23:59:59 GMT key size:2048 issuer:/C=US/ST=TX/L=Houston/O=cPanel, Inc./CN=cPanel, Inc. Certification Authority But if i check by curl (# curl -v https://attistibaipar.lv/) or by openssl (# openssl s_client -servername attistibaipar.lv -connect attistibaipar.lv:443) ----- From curl * SSL connection using TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256 * Server certificate: * subject: CN=*.attistibaipar.lv * start date: Jul 24 12:23:03 2018 GMT * expire date: Oct 22 12:23:03 2018 GMT * common name: *.attistibaipar.lv * issuer: CN=Let's Encrypt Authority X3,O=Let's Encrypt,C=US ----- From openssl CONNECTED(00000003) depth=2 O = Digital Signature Trust Co., CN = DST Root CA X3 verify return:1 depth=1 C = US, O = Let's Encrypt, CN = Let's Encrypt Authority X3 verify return:1 depth=0 CN = *.attistibaipar.lv verify return:1 --- Certificate chain 0 s:/CN=*.attistibaipar.lv i:/C=US/O=Let's Encrypt/CN=Let's Encrypt Authority X3 1 s:/C=US/O=Let's Encrypt/CN=Let's Encrypt Authority X3 i:/O=Digital Signature Trust Co./CN=DST Root CA X3 --- I get another information and this information is actual and right. So, why this happened? This is a bug or I need to make right configuration for Xymon?

Same server on many pages
by jonas.hultstrom＠scania.com 13 Sep '18

13 Sep '18

Hi, I would like to separate monitoring from one host to different pages, i.e. "OS monitoring" on one page, and application monitoring on another page. I tried to do it with multiple entries in hosts.cfg, but I always gets all monitoring on both pages. Is it possible to do things like that? Thanks! Jonas

SNMP Traps - We are converting to Xymon from BB
by jason.hildreth＠noaa.gov 11 Sep '18

11 Sep '18

Question is more related to Big Brother in our interim before we move to Xymon.... If anyone can help (since BB has been dead for a while) it would be appreciated. We have SNMP traps setup to be received in our Big Brother environment but instead of sending the trap back to itself for processing it is sending the data to the IP of the other Big Brother (now Xymon) system. We want to keep the SNMP traps on the Big Brother system until we put the xymon system in place completely. Does anyone know why it is sending to a different IP than the IP of the system the SNMP trap was received on...and where that is set in order to make this stop... Thanks -- Jason Hildreth Middleware, Programming, Systems Administrator Infrastructure and Web Services Branch NCEP Central Operations

Windows Salient Temperature Values on Windows (CPU, mainboard, fans, etc?)
by storerr＠nibco.com 11 Sep '18

Tim, I'd suggest getting the SNMP MIBs from your vendor, enable SNMP alerts on the Windows server, and then monitor for those SNMP alerts. I didn't find reliable WMI information for these readings for all hardware.
