Hi,
I've been running my clients in localmode for a while now and one thing that's not working at all, is checking for files.
In a default configuration, there must be an entry in client-local.cfg and in analysis.cfg, but this does not apply to localmode.
My file checks are configured in localclient.cfg on the clients (like the rest of the checks, which are working fine and as expected).
I found an old question regarding this [1], but I was not able to solve my problems with this approach unfortunately. My file checks are just being ignored when clients are using localmode.
Is there some trick to it respectively what am I doing wrong here?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers Christoph
I don't use local mode, but I'll see if I can help.
I believe you still need to configure analysis.cfg on the server.
Check your client data report and see if there is a section for the dinner you're monitoring.

I tried that prior to sending my message to the mailing list, sorry, I should have included that information. It did not change anything.

Which data report do you mean?

If you go to the CPU status page (or disk or ports, etc) there's a link at the bottom that says "client data available".
Maybe there's no client data when in local mode?
Did you create the file $XYMONHOME/etc/logfetch.cfg?

I see, thanks! There's data, yes.

Oh, the file has to be named logfetch.cfg, not "logfetch.<client>.cfg" as per the old mailinglist entry! Now it works, thank you so much!
