hello
perhaps I found an regression into the xymonproxy process :
my setup :
xymonproxy listen on vip1 on port 1984 he send information to a local xymond on 127.0.0.1 and port 1984 he send information to a local xymonproxy1 listen on 127.0.0.1 and port 1985 xymonproxy1 send information to vip2 on port 1984 he send information to a local xymonproxy2 listen on 127.0.0.1 and port 1986 xymonproxy2 send information to vip3 on port 1984
for status message (client running locally and send status to vip1 on port 1984) status is show on local xymond on 127.0.0.1 and port 1984 and on remote vip2 on port 1984.
this is fine.
I do a xymon --timeout=5 127.0.0.1 "xymondboard" everything is ok. But if I do a xymon --timeout=5 vip1 "xymondboard" is not working. I can see this into debug logs :
xymonproxy listen on vip1 on port 1984 logs : 2010-12-02 10:58:58 vip1 : xymondboard
local xymond on 127.0.0.1 and port 1984 logs : ==> /var/log/xymon/xymond.log <== 11699 2010-12-02 11:02:28 -> do_message/1 (11 bytes): xymondboard 11699 2010-12-02 11:02:28 -> update_statistics 11699 2010-12-02 11:02:28 <- update_statistics 11699 2010-12-02 11:02:28 -> oksender 11699 2010-12-02 11:02:28 <- oksender(1-a) 11699 2010-12-02 11:02:28 -> setup_filter: xymondboard 11699 2010-12-02 11:02:28 <- setup_filter: xymondboard 11699 2010-12-02 11:02:28 <- do_message/1
So we can see that xymond receive the xymondboard request but don't return information. In previous setup with hobbit 4.2 this is working fine.
I hope it's my explanation are clear.
oau
