[Xymon] TS - Problem ignoring 'mem' from Quest Windows Client 4.00

Team,

            I am at a loss.

            I am running Xymon 4.3.0-0.beta2 on a Dell R-610 running

CentOS 5.x. I have a pair of them.

            We have multiple virtual Exchange servers on Win2003

server.

            All are reporting 'mem' problems up to 104%.



            We currently use the Quest BB 4.00 Windows client as I

converted the main server from BB to Xymon over 2 years ago.

            This was the best plan for the conversion as our Windows

admins already were acquainted with the GUI setup.

            Since we pay for maintenance from Quest on the client, I

opened a case with them but cannot tell them that the server is Xymon.

            Currently we want to stop the client from monitoring the

'mem'. The GUI says to set the value above 100% for the alerts.

            The GUI will not let you set the values above 100 and

100 for yellow and red respectively.

            P.S.  This does work for disk drives though.



            Quest says to add this parameter to the bb-host file of

'nomem' - this does not seem to do anything.

The also want to change the bbwarnrules to: *;;*;*;mail at mail.com

            Not sure what this is accomplishing?

I still need alerting for all the other items from the current client.

Disabling the test, is not the answer as it bounces up and down all day long.

I also tried to add an entry for each host in the /home/xymon/client/etc/localclient.cfg

and to hobbitclient.cfg at the bottom of the file:

HOST=slxcg01.csw.l-3com.com

    MEMPHYS 110 120

    MEMSWAP 50 80

    MEMACT  90 97

HOST=slxcg02.csw.l-3com.com

    MEMPHYS 110 120

    MEMSWAP 50 80

    MEMACT  90 97

HOST=slxcg03.csw.l-3com.com

    MEMPHYS 110 120

    MEMSWAP 50 80

    MEMACT  90 97

Still seeing RED for 'mem' Icon J

Thanks,
