Hey all,
Sorry for the slew of questions here, I'm trying to finish up a project and as an intern, I'm really trying to be able to finish before I have to go back to school.
My current issue has to do with having multiple instances of a host. In my hosts.cfg file, it looks like this:
page logs TEST1 group-only testing1|testing2|testing3|info|trends <font size="+1">glog</font> 10.0.0.1 site.address.domain # testing1 noping
page logs TEST2 group-only testing1|testing2|testing3|info|trends <font size="+1">dlog</font> 10.0.0.1 site.address.domain # testing2 noping
page logs TEST3 group-only testing1|testing2|testing3|info|trends <font size="+1">zlog</font> 10.0.0.1 site.address.domain # testing3 noping
This set up does run all my custom tests properly, however, each setup for "site.address.domain" runs *all three custom scripts, *(testing1 testing 2 & testing3), causing the pages TEST1, TEST2, and TEST3 to *all turn red* if any one of the other scripts turns red. In relevance to this, when I click, for example, on my "TEST1" page, it will show that testing1, testing2, and testing3 are all running for site.address.domain.
Due to the nature of my assignment, I need to separate these instances so that for the first declaration of site.address.domain only runs testing1, the second only runs testing2, and the third only runs testing3. I cannot alter the setup to have multiple host.
Also, I will have ~24 tests that need to constantly be running, (8 per each host), and they are *slightly* different. I don't have the space to simply cram all 24 on one line.
So does anyone have any solutions and/or suggestions as to how I could break up the host to have 3 completely separate instances on Xymon? I hope this was a specific enough explanation
Thanks all! I really appreciate the community help I've been receiving while setting this up, its been a huge boost to my education.
Cheers, Joshua.
