Yeah I hear you, that config file is a pain... We manage it with SCCM.

The nuclear option is to customise the client you deploy, increment the version number at the top and have the clients auto-update - change this line, change the 1 to 0 (zero):

SetIfNot $script:XymonSettings clientbbwinmembug 1 # 0 = report correctly, 1 = page and virtual switched

Thanks Zak, I will look into that option in the client config.? Is there possibly a way to accomplish the swap on the Server side instead?? I have hundreds of clients with years of history that would need adjusted, and it would be great to have a server-side option that would use the existing data and display it correctly.

Hi Kris

I think you can swap it back to what you expect by specifying

<clientbbwinmembug>0</clientbbwinmembug>

in the xymonclient_config.xml file.

It's the way it is because bbwin did it that way...

CAUTION: External email. Be cautious with links and attachments.

I'd love to find out how to IGNORE or hide the MEMPHYS data coming from linux client hosts so the server doesn't graph anything for that specific memory info. I've tried using the IGNORE flag in analysis.cfg but that seems to only work for Disk and Logs, not Memory. Is there a way to accomplish this? I'd also like to IGNORE the MEMACT data coming from Windows Powershell clients. For whatever reason it seems that MEMPHYS and MEMACT are reversed between Windows and Linux, causing great confusion.
