Hi John,
no - nothing. I had actually tested this out by removing the host from bb-hosts and then it did appear in the ghost client list.

Hi all,
I'm possibly going to make a fool out of myself here but thought I would pose the question any way.
Thanks to all involved in making the PS client, seems like it's going to be a great tool for me but I need to work out what I am doing wrong.
I have installed Xymonclient.ps1 on my server (windows server 2012) in c:\program files\xymon.
Directory of C:\Program Files\Xymon
18-03-15 17:09 <DIR> . 18-03-15 17:09 <DIR> .. 18-03-15 10:09 <DIR> logs 18-03-15 07:49 331.264 nssm.exe 18-03-15 15:09 107.232 xymonclient.ps1 18-03-15 15:30 380 xymonclient_config.xml 18-03-15 07:49 396.800 XymonPSClient.exe 18-03-15 07:50 1.841 xymonsend.ps1
I have a service running called XymonPSClient.
I have log files saying data is being collected and data has been sent:
end of log file here:
2015-03-18 17:50:52 Main and optional tests finished. 2015-03-18 17:50:52 Sending to server 2015-03-18 17:50:52 Connecting to host (ip of my server) 2015-03-18 17:50:52 Sent 49192 bytes to server 2015-03-18 17:50:52 Received 0 bytes from server 2015-03-18 17:50:52 Executing RepeatTests 2015-03-18 17:50:52 RepeatTests finished 2015-03-18 17:50:52 Delaying until next run: 295.7656229 seconds
But when I check Xymon, no client data is actually being received, no columns are appearing for the host I defined in bb-hosts. I did a
./bb localhost "hobbitdboard host=(my host name)"
and there is no client information there other than trends/info/conn which is fetched by the Xymon server.
Couple of points:
There are no registry entries for XymonPSClient at the locations listed in the readme
I am using an older version of Xymon (hobbit) which works fine with bbwin.
telnet to hobbit server using port 1984 - all ok.
xymon-lastcollect.txt has all the information inside that I expect.
XymonSettings as follows:
[XymonConfig] XymonSettings
serversList : (my xymon server) wanteddisksList : {3} clientname : (my client host name) clientbbwinmembug : 1 clientsoftware : powershell loopinterval : 300 maxlogage : 60 MaxEvents : 5000 slowscanrate : 72 reportevt : 1 EnableWin32_Product : 0 EnableWin32_QuickFixEngineering : 0 EnableWMISections : 0 ClientProcessPriority : Normal clientlogpath : c:\program files\xymon\logs clientlogretain : 0 servergiflocation : /xymon/gifs/ servers : (my xymon server) clientlogfile : c:\program files\xymon\logs\xymonclient.log clientconfigfile : c:\program files\xymon\clientconfig.cfg clientfqdn : 1 clientlower : 1 clientremotecfgexec : 1
note:
clientconfigfile : c:\program files\xymon\clientconfig.cfg this file doesn't exist
Any ideas?
