Ok, I could just do this in the script:
xymon 0 "xymondboard host=xymon1 test=xymond color=green"
As long as that returns green then execute the script. Thanks for the hint Josh.

Just look at the hobbitd column. Goes yellow for 5 minutes when it restarts and says...

I have several server side scripts that give me results I would rather not have soon after a Xymon server restart. What is the best way to determine if Xymon just started? I could poke around a bit, just wondered if someone already had some ideas already implemented. I will do something like exit 1 If xymon just started, otherwise continue.
