Hi This problem only occur in Linux (RHEL3 and RHEL4 - I haven't test on other Linux platfrom). with xymon 4.2.3 (not Hobbit). The default is "INTERVAL 5m"
a typcal xymon processes include :
xymon 12790 1 0 10:13 ? 00:00:00 /opt/Conti/xymon/client/bin/hobbitlaunch --config=/opt/Conti/xymon/client/etc/clientlaunch.cfg --log=/opt/Conti/xymon/client/logs/clientlaunch.log --pidfile=/opt/Conti/xymon/client/logs/clientlaunch.linuxhost.pid xymon 12791 12790 0 10:13 ? 00:00:00 /bin/sh /opt/Conti/xymon/client/bin/hobbitclient.sh xymon 12796 12791 0 10:13 ? 00:00:00 /bin/sh /opt/Conti/xymon/client/bin/hobbitclient-linux.sh xymon 12813 12796 0 10:13 ? 00:00:00 sh -c vmstat 300 2 1>/opt/Conti/xymon/client/tmp/hobbit_vmstat.linuxhost.12796 2>&1; mv /opt/Conti/xymon/client/tmp/hobbit_vmstat.linuxhost.12796 /opt/Conti/xymon/client/tmp/hobbit_vmstat.linuxhost
However, the PID 12813 disappear 5 minutes later. And the xymon page shows cpu, disk, files memory, msg, port and proc icons in purple.
Any suggestion ?
Thanks
