I was actually under the impression that this just straight-up ran the client (it's in hobbitlaunch.cfg, the former name for tasks.cfg):
"hobbitclient" runs the Xymon client. The client is installed
automatically
when you install a Xymon server (presumably, you do want to monitor the
Xymon server ?), but there's no need to have two hobbitlaunch instances
running at the same time. So we'll just run it from here.
Note: If you are using another client package, you should disable
this one.
[hobbitclient] ENVFILE /opt/xymon-4.2.3/client/etc/hobbitclient.cfg NEEDS hobbitd CMD /opt/xymon-4.2.3/client/bin/hobbitclient.sh LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/hobbitclient.log INTERVAL 5m
...so if this is the way I'm running the client, can I expect not to have my clientlaunch.cfg honored?

Thanks Henrik, That works perfectly.
I think Ryan is correct in saying that this should be included by default. You expect it to behave as any client. I couldn't find any reference about the include statement in any docs I looked in! Man page for tasks.cfg doesn't have anything.

Hi,
you could add your extra tests to clientlaunch.cfg, but by default this file is not included in the config read from tasks.cfg.
So either add your extra tests directly in tasks.cfg, or add include /usr/lib/xymon/client/etc/clientlaunch.cfg to your tasks.cfg file.

Then what could be the problem? I obviously missed something.
I got the same issue on 4.3.5 and 4.3.10 I find nothing in the server logs. There are no client-logs in client/logs (even though specified) I double checked the vars and they are working.

Hi,
I am a bit confused on how to add extra tests to the xymon-server itself.
In server/etc/tasks,cfg
I run the [xymonclient]
If I would like to add some other tests like ZFS and prtdiag I would have though I add them as in any client in
client/etc/clientlaunch.cfg
But to get these tests work I have to add them in server/etc/tasks,cfg
What am I missing?
I'm pretty sure you don't need to do that. The client should read clientlaunch and run what's in the cfg.
