You could probably run both client and server configurations simultaneously, but that's not efficient.
So those entries end up in the server portion's etc/tasks.cfg (instead of in clientlaunch.cfg as on all other clients). Here's a couple of custom entries I have there, the first for a server side ext (monitoring some smart plugs) the 2nd for a client side volume management ext to run on the server. Note the different environment variables, esp XYMONHOME (server side ext) vs XYMONCLIENTHOME (client side ext)
[devstat] ENVFILE $XYMONHOME/etc/xymonserver.cfg CMD $XYMONHOME/ext/devstat LOGFILE $XYMONSERVERLOGS/devstat.log INTERVAL 5m [volmgt] ENVFILE $XYMONCLIENTHOME/etc/xymonclient.cfg NEEDS xymond CMD $XYMONCLIENTHOME/ext/volmgt LOGFILE $XYMONCLIENTHOME/logs/volmgt.log INTERVAL 5m

I have a server running xymon-4.3.28. For the clients that send data to thismachine I have a number of plugins configured on the client machines in the ext directory and configured in the etc/clientlaunch.cfg file. Can someone tell me how to configure the server to add plugins the same way. Or is it not done this way. I see no clientlaunch.cfg file. Everything is working for the client part of the server like disk and cpu.
