[Xymon] Proxy Priority?

Sean,

You can sync client-local.cfg if you designate one of the servers as master. If all the servers are the same, it won't matter which one responds.

xymon master "config client-local.cfg"

Will retrieve the master client-local.cfg.

David.

I have a setup like this:

+------------------------+ +----------------------+ | xymon:1985 | | | |------------------------| | Downstream client | | xymonproxy:1984 | <-----+| | +------------------------+ +----------------------+ + | | | +-----> proxy sends to localhost:1985, and upstream host1 1984, upstream host2 1984

[this is repeated across several sites]

The issue is, when downstream client looks to get it's config – in some sites, it gets the local-client from xymon:1985 host, but in others, it gets it from upstream hostX:1984

The xymondproxy in the tasks.cfg is identical in each place (--server localhost:1985, host1:1984, host2:1984) -- so I am confused as to why some get localhost, and some do not — the local-client is different in each place – and I'D prefer some setting I am missing (?) so that it always gets the local-client from the xymon:1985 instance.
