- combo.d directory for combo includes. Helps to organize.
OK, I thought I had been through the various config files and made them all use the standard functions that support "include" and "directory". Missed this one, it seems - and the protocols.cfg. Fixed for 4.3.6.
- uptime configurable to be a red alert. Quite often a machine can reboot quickly and we can be unaware for some time, we would like to be alerted so we can restart all application processes ASAP to minimize downtime.
Will be in 4.3.6.
- TEST2RDD and GRAPHS variables moved to another file, perhaps an include for xymonserver.cfg? Why do I ask because we have dual Xymon servers running for redundancy and it would be nice if I could easily rsync these 2 variables in a file that does not have host specific variables. Currently I cannot rsync xymonserver.cfg because of the XYMONSERVERHOSTNAME, XYMONSERVERIP, XYMONSERVERWWWNAME variables.
Easy to do (since I do that already). Create a xymonserver.cfg on each server which holds only the site-specific stuff (those three variables you mention), then put an "include xymonserver-common.cfg" at the bottom. Then you keep all of the standard config (like TEST2RRD) in the common config-file.
