[Xymon] analysis of process state with xymon client

29 Aug 2015


      Since my clients still use the "old school" BB software, I'm not very
good with analysis.cfg and Xymon clients. But I don't see any way to
have a xymon client trigger on a process state other than "running".
Is there a way, for example, to have this client change state if a child
of a particular process is found in "defunct" state. I can certainly do
it with a few lines of shell-script, but I'd rather to use the existing
client capabilities if present.
Do things because you should, not just because you can.
