SV: SV: [xymon] Xymon reports excessive memory usage on 1 SLES 11 host

...

[free] total used free shared buffers cached Mem: 3921396 3851576 69820 0 319192 3903296 -/+ buffers/cache: 18014398509111072 4292308 Swap: 2104472 904 2103568 I have to plead "not guilty" on behalf of Xymon, then. The data reported by "free" in the "+/- buffers/cache" line is obviously bogus - but it is what Xymon uses for the "Actual" memory calculations. If Xymon gets bogus data, then you will also have bogus results.

Yes, thats understandable. Is there any way I can NOT trigger notification on these bogus alerts? Disable the MEMACT check for that host?
