Currently, xymonnet is running with a global timeout of 20 seconds (--timeout=20).
For a particular device, i need to increase the HTTP timeout (120 seconds.. sic).
I did't find anything regarding this kind of feature. only a old mail of 2006 saying it's not possible. (http://lists.xymon.com/archive/2006-August/009042.html).
Is it still not possible to override this timeout individually ?
No, this will be possible in the next release - but not in 4.3.x.
What you can do is to use the "NET:foo" definition on this particular host in hosts.cfg to have it tested by a special instance of the xymonnet task:
Add the "--test-untagged" option to your current xymonnet command in tasks.cfg
Add "NET:slowtests" to this particular host in hosts.cfg
In a script, set XYMONNETWORK="slowtests" (remember to export it!) and then run the xymonnet command to do the test of this one host, with the different --timeout option
Add a new section to tasks.cfg to run the test script.
