Hi all,
I'm possibly going to make a fool out of myself here but thought I would pose the question any way. Thanks to all involved in making the PS client, seems like it's going to be a great tool for me but I need to work out what I am doing wrong.
I have installed Xymonclient.ps1 on my server (windows server 2012) in c:\program files\xymon.
Directory of C:\Program Files\Xymon
18-03-15 17:09 <DIR> . 18-03-15 17:09 <DIR> .. 18-03-15 10:09 <DIR> logs 18-03-15 07:49 331.264 nssm.exe 18-03-15 15:09 107.232 xymonclient.ps1 18-03-15 15:30 380 xymonclient_config.xml 18-03-15 07:49 396.800 XymonPSClient.exe 18-03-15 07:50 1.841 xymonsend.ps1
I have a service running called XymonPSClient. I have log files saying data is being collected and data has been sent:
end of log file here: 2015-03-18 17:50:52 Main and optional tests finished. 2015-03-18 17:50:52 Sending to server 2015-03-18 17:50:52 Connecting to host (ip of my server) 2015-03-18 17:50:52 Sent 49192 bytes to server 2015-03-18 17:50:52 Received 0 bytes from server 2015-03-18 17:50:52 Executing RepeatTests 2015-03-18 17:50:52 RepeatTests finished 2015-03-18 17:50:52 Delaying until next run: 295.7656229 seconds
But when I check Xymon, no client data is actually being received, no columns are appearing for the host I defined in bb-hosts. I did a
./bb localhost "hobbitdboard host=(my host name)"
and there is no client information there other than trends/info/conn which is fetched by the Xymon server.
Couple of points:
- There are no registry entries for XymonPSClient at the locations listed in the readme
- I am using an older version of Xymon (hobbit) which works fine with bbwin.
- telnet to hobbit server using port 1984 - all ok.
- xymon-lastcollect.txt has all the information inside that I expect.
XymonSettings as follows:
[XymonConfig] XymonSettings

note: clientconfigfile : c:\program files\xymon\clientconfig.cfg this file doesn't exist
Any ideas?
Many thanks, sorry for long message but wanted to include as much info as possible.
