Hi,
I have a number of hosts where I need to check the ps listing every minute and alert when something is wrong, but I dont want or need to run the rest of the client agent tests more frequently than the standard 5 minute interval.
I thought the answer was to create a client extension to send another ps listing as a client message with a unique Collector ID and run this as frequently as required When I do this, I find on the server that the client data does indeed get updated every minute but the extra ps listing (which I put in a section called '[ps]') is not apparently processed against analysis.cfg. I know I can do this all on the client with a status message but I wanted to keep the configuration central and re-use the PROCS settings in analysis.cfg.
The 'collector ID' is used by Xymon to choose which module is used to process the data. So if you change the collector ID, then the data will be ignored by xymond_client.
Try sending the data with the normal collector ID (blank), and I think that should work fine.
Regards, Henrik
