Hi all,
I've got a few problems with my busy Xymon system (v4.2.3) on Solaris 10 and any help or ideas would be much appreciated. The bbd monitor intermittently goes red. To investigate it, I've tried getting a response from my proxy port (1984) every second for few hours using netcat. Strangely, noted that Xymon proxy does not respond sometimes for 10-30 seconds to the network probe requests. I assume the Xymon client packets queue up while the proxy doesn't respond and are not lost. BBgen reports we have 750 hosts and 8293 status messages, but the hardware resources are used only at 25% and the network doesn't seem to struggle at all. Also, it reports the average queue time is 0.725. Could anyone tell me more about bbd process, what config changes I can make to stop it going red? If you need more details or config output please let me know.
Thanks, Arunas
