Hi,

Anyone using double combo messages? I was following the man pages, which state they are possible, but my tests calculate "-1" and the color comes out $unknown.

(iam.db&&gam.db) = (-1&&-1) = 1 &unknown iam.db &unknown gam.db

Sample config from combo.cfg. I have changed hostnames to protect the innocent...combos based on the values returned by dbcheck.pl...our DB's are served on 4 node Oracle Grid clusters, which is why we have alias' for the DB, such as servername_dbname.

Hostnames are defined in hosts.d as "0.0.0.0 gam # noconn nonongreen noproppurple:*" gam/iam/impact all defined the same in hosts.

iam.db = (servername\_iam.audit && servername\_iam.conn && servername\_iam.extent && servername\_iam.info && servername\_iam.invobj && servername\_iam.locks && servername\_iam.rollback && servername\_iam.session && servername\_iam.tblspace && servername\_iam.trends && servername\_iam.uptime)

gam.db = (servername\_gam.audit && servername\_gam.conn && servername\_gam.extent && servername\_gam.info && servername\_gam.invobj && servername\_gam.locks && servername\_gam.rollback && servername\_gam.session && servername\_gam.tblspace && servername\_gam.trends && servername\_gam.uptime)

These two above work fine. They are single layer combo tests...All my single layer combo tests work.

The double combo is this:

impact.db = (iam.db && gam.db) - same with our without parenthesys...if I use single ampersand, color propogates up, but staus still shows &unknown.

We have tried multiple combinations taking the combo down to barest form, and still get the errors (&unknown).

Log doesn't really help...

combostatus.log.1:21316 2011-06-30 03:58:03 Symbolic 'event.db&&gam.db&&iam.db&&jbpm.db' converted to '-1&&-1&&-1&&-1'

I put the --debug on the cmd in tasks, and not logging much else helpful.

Appreciate some thoughs or suggestions.
