I upgraded my xymon 4.2.3 server to the version 4.3.0 beta2 in order to test the holidays feature.
After the upgrade I had
to create the hobbit-holidays.cfg file manuallyto add the HOLIDAYFORMAT entry in the hobbitserver.cfg file
After these actions I got the Holiday info in my info pages.
Now I'm wondering if it is possible to use this Holiday information in the planned downtime items of the bb-hosts file.
I did some test buts couldn't include this holidays in the planned downtime.
I configured it like this:
In my hobbit-holidays.cfg file I defined the current day as a test holiday day.
Check: On the info page I see in the Holiday 2010 (be) tabel a "Test Day 03/17" line.
Now I configured planned downtime for this servers in the bb-hosts file:
DOWNTIME=*:W:0600:1600
Check: On the info page I see the info: "Planned downtime: Mon-Fri:0600:1600"
I configured a non active IP address and as I configured HOLIDAYLIKEWEEKDAY=0 (in the hobbit-holidays.cfg file)I would expect that this must result in a red alert.
Today (defined as a holiday) should behave as a Sunday.
But I got a planned downtime (bleu) code instead of red.
Can anyone help me?
Or is this holiday list only usable in the hobbit-alerts.cfg and availability (REPORTTIME=W:0700:2000) parameters?
