It works!
I added this code to my php script:
$is_flap=exec("xymon 127.0.0.1 'xymondboard host=".$BBVARS["BBHOSTNAME"]." test=".$BBVARS["BBSVCNAME"]." fields=flapinfo'"); if( $is_flap[0]== '1' ){ $BBVARS["BBALPHAMSG"]="FLAPPING STATUS\n\nLast message:".$BBVARS["BBALPHAMSG"]; }
Thank you!

Hi, I'm using Xymon on a server with an external dispatcher system. To integrate it, I use the "SCRIPT" command in alerts.cfg, but I have a problem with the flapping status messages. In the variable BBALPHAMSG I have not the "WARNING: Flapping Status" message and I see only a red status with a green message. Can you help me? Is possible to integrate the "flapping status" message?
At the moment, the "flapping status" message isn't well exposed to a xymond_alert SCRIPT process. Rather than integrate it directly (like disable or acknowledgement messages are), it would probably be better to have it passed in via a distinct environment variable...
Until this is added, and as long as you aren't concerned about high concurrency spirals during an alert storm, you can get this info by calling back into xymon from your script using
xymon $XYMSRV "xymondboard host=<hostname> test=<testname> fields=flapinfo" What comes back will be as described in the xymon man page under 'xymondboard'. If the first character is '1', then it's flapping.
