Hi
I Understand that hostname+statusname is unipue. What I want to do i us these informations in different combinations.
I think that Xymon works this way: Xymon server receives client information from the xymon-client, stores this information and then generate the xymon webpage on request. When xymon server is asked for a specifik page for clienta+proc, the xymon server check what to do with the stored information against the server/etc/hobbit-client.cfg file and the generates the webpage.
I would like to be able to load webpages generated from different hobbit-client.cfg files.
basicly I want to make 1 page showing everything of interest for the sysadmins and another one only showing part of the clienta+proc specifik for a given customer.
I have Proc, Ports and Services for many customers on the same server and would to be able to tell which customer is affected when some monitor goes red.
If it is possible to make a page only showing specifik monitors, then it should be possible to descibe a serviceflow/dataflow on a subpage and then from the main page see if any services in that flow is affected (one host should be able to be part of many flows).
Regards Mogens

Is it then possible to run a bbcmd to get the info generated with different hobbit-clients.cfg files. I can read in the man pages it could be like this (I can't get this woking)= : bbcmd sh hobbitd_channel --channel=3Dclient hobbitd_client --config=3Dhobbit-client-testa.cfg
And then parse this output to another page to have hobbit show the normal page like
normal hobbitpage servera proc1 proc2 proc3 ...
hobbit serviceline page servera proc2
serverb proc3 port1
You must understand that in Hobbit the (hostname+statusname) combination is considered unique. So you cannot have more than one (servera/proc) status.
You *could* use different hostnames; then you can modify the client on each server to send the data multiple times using different hostnames. It's a bit waste of ressources, though.
Perhaps it would be an idea if you told us exactly what it is you're trying to achive with this setup ?
