[Xymon] how to add a specific http timeout

Good Morning.

I run Xymon 4.3.25 and I need to enable an alert for http 8280 when timeout is over 1 second.

Can I do easily way in hosts or I have to create a new configuration as you explain in olders version?

"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:

1. Add the "--test-untagged" option to your current xymonnet command in tasks.cfg

2. Add "NET:slowtests" to this particular host in hosts.cfg

3. 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

4. Add a new section to tasks.cfg to run the test script."

Thanks. Best Regards. [JoseManuelBlasco]
