[Xymon] Client uptime status is failing

4 Feb 2019


      I've never seen that before - have you added uptime to hosts.cfg?  If so,
remove it!  (It looks like the Xymon server is testing a network service
here, and uptime is not a network service!)
Kind regards,

Hi,
Do you mind giving any suggestions on why only the Xymon server uptime is
reporting correctly whereas the client says that service is unavailable.
Not sure what I am missing here.
Thanks and Regards,

This may be down to what your clients are reporting.  What client
version(s) are you talking about here?
Kind regards,

Hi,
I am having trouble w.r.t to uptime status generation in clients. The
server is displaying uptime correctly since xymond fetches the data,
whereas for the clients it does not fetch the uptime data. However it
populates all other columns. Can you please suggest if I am missing
anything here.
*Situation* :
Xymon server  and Xymon clients are  configured. The table is populated
with colors and data being generated except for uptime in clients whereas
the server is reporting uptime correctly. This is probably because of
xymond daemon. The status message also indicated service not available
which indicates xymond service.  So how can we get the Xymon clients to
update the uptime.
*Tasks.cfg file :*
The client back-end module. You need this if you are running the Xymon
client on any system.
[clientdata]
    ENVFILE /home/xymon/server/etc/xymonserver.cfg

    NEEDS xymond

    CMD xymond_channel --channel=client
--log=$XYMONSERVERLOGS/clientdata.log xymond_client --uptime-status
*Status message :*
