Hi all, I seem to be having problems with CLASS in analysis.cfg and I'm really not sure as to why. I hope I can explain this well enough.

I have some servers picking up the rules from analysis.cfg and some not, I've selected 2 as samples to try and illustrate the issue.

These are the entries from hosts.cfg for each server

172.01.01.01 server1 # http://server1:2801/utils/enterLogin.jsp NOPROPYELLOW:disk,cpu,mq delayyellow=cpu:15 delayred=cpu:15 CLASS:linux 172.01.01.02 server2 # NOPROPYELLOW:disk,cpu delayyellow=cpu:15 delayred=cpu:15 CLASS:linux

As you can see, both force the CLASS:linux parameter.

Each server has it's own config file in an analysis.d directory which is included near the bottom of the analysis.cfg file.

server 1's file contains this,

HOST=server1 GROUP=unixsupport PORT "LOCAL=%([.:]22)$" state=LISTEN TEXT=ssh PROC cybAgent.bin 1 PROC rmi_server1 1 -1 red PROC admin_server1 1 -1 red PROC eventprocessor_server1 1 -1 red PROC queuemanager_server1 1 -1 red PROC scheduler_server1 1 -1 red PROC workflowengine_server1 1 -1 red PROC "server1Cell01 server1Node01 pim01srv" 1 -1 red PROC init 1 -1 red PROC tlmagent.bin 1 PROC /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsmcad 1 PROC "/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsmc sched" 1 LOG %/opt/IBM/MDMPIM/logs/\w*server1/\w*.log "internal error" COLOR=yellow IGNORE="unregistered" LOG /opt/IBM/MDMPIM/logs/workflowengine_server1/db_manager.log "CWPCM0033W:An error occurred when registering thread: heartbeat_workflowengine" COLOR=red LOG /applogs/mdmpim/logs/appsvr_server1/default.log "/utils/custom_page.jsp] ERROR jsp.footer - CWPCM0002E:Generic error / Exception: Not an AustinException, Exception:Failure to acquire exclusive lock for AustinContext" COLOR=red MQ_QUEUE SYSTEM.DEAD.LETTER.QUEUE depth-warning=1 MQ_QUEUE "%([A-Z.]*BO)$" depth-warning=1

and server 2's contains this,

HOST=server2 GROUP=unixsupport PORT "LOCAL=%([.:]22)$" state=LISTEN TEXT=ssh PROC /home/dasusr1/das/adm/db2dasrrm 1 PROC /opt/IBM/db2/V9.7/bin/db2fmcd 1 PROC /opt/IBM/db2/V9.7/das/bin/db2fmd 1 PROC db2sysc PROC tlmagent.bin 1 PROC /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsmcad 1 PROC "/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsmc sched" 1

Nothing unusual or out of the ordinary in either of those.

in my analysis.cfg file I have the following,

HOST=* DISK %^/mnt IGNORE DISK %^/nimdir 101 101 DISK %^/media IGNORE DISK %^/cdrom IGNORE

CLASS=win32

SVC CentennialIPTransferAgent startup=automatic status=started

SVC %McShield startup=automatic status=started

CLOCK 600 yellow

CLASS=linux UP 10m PROC ntpd 1 PROC /usr/sbin/sshd 1 DISK /nmon 95 98 TIME=W:0800:1800 DISK /nmon 95 101

CLASS=aix

PROC /usr/sbin/syslogd 1

    PROC /usr/sbin/xntpd 1
    PROC /usr/sbin/cron 1
    PROC /usr/lib/errdemon 1
    PROC /usr/sbin/syncd 1
    PROC sshd 1
    DISK /nmon 95 98 TIME=W:0800:1800
    DISK /nmon 95 101 TIME=W:1800:0800
    DISK /perf 95 98 TIME=W:0800:1800
    DISK /perf 95 101 TIME=W:1800:0800
    DISK /temp IGNORE

include files

directory /xymon/server/etc/analysis.d

CLASS=linux MEMSWAP 10 30

DEFAULT # These are the built-in defaults. UP 10m LOAD 6.0 8.0 DISK * 95 98 MEMPHYS 100 101 MEMSWAP 50 80 MEMACT 90 97

Server 1 does not pick up the lines in the analysis.cfg file yet server 2 does. That is the confusing thing, as far as I can see, both should pick up these rules.

Thanks, Neil.
