Stef: I have xymon installed. I am wondering if you have a patch to display the graph for iostat. I would appreciate it.
I am running Red Hat E. Linux 5.2 64 bit.
Thank you,

Hi, I have running a stable Hobbit 4.2 Server on a CentOS 4.8. I also use Devmon and several other plugins to monitor our Server, Switches, Modem etc.
Can anyone tell me any points, why it could be interesting for me to build up a new Xymon server? I mean, are there any interesting, new features in Xymon, that an upgrade make sense?
Maik
This is my question too... I've changed some code in 4.2.0 and to me is very stable.
best regards,
Panza.

It seems to me that this is the usual question when ever any software changes versions -- is the pain of the upgrade offset by the "improvements" in the in new release? Everyone has to perform their own analysis.
The obvious reason to upgrade is to "stay current" -- most "bug fix" activity is based on current releases, and new features are also based on current releases. I don't think there are enough Xymon developers to maintain several version families over the long haul.
But -- no one is going to make you upgrade. If you are satisfied with your current release -- stick with it and spend your time on other things! The release I use is pretty old, too -- testing the "latest" release is something I plan to do "when I get around to it"...

The current changelog is the best way to stay current on what the differences are...
The basic differences (aside from performance improvements and more parallelization) are in additional network tests (SSL and SOAP stuff) and more flexible display options (grouping and paging) AFAIK.
