Hi all
Anybody seen something like this? Execution of '/usr/local/sbin/fping -Ae' failed with error-code 4 /usr/local/sbin/fping: select : Invalid argument DIAGNOSTICS Exit status is 0 if all the hosts are reachable, 1 if some hosts were unreachable, 2 if any IP addresses were not found, 3 for invalid command line arguments, and 4 for a system call failure.
Not much comes to mind except some sort of hidiously invalid hostname somehow making it in the xymon pipe through to fping, which fping is then trying to select on. Is your xymon config pretty static or are there are lot of changes happening to it all the time? Any other unusual Solaris behavior going on, or anything weird with the (local) fping compile?
