Greetings -
I've been searching for a way to use Xymon to retrieve details from the "client data" report for many hosts. XYMONDBOARD looks like it is *close*, but I cannot find the exact syntax required.
I'm running v4.3.7 (old, I know).
If I click on the "client data available" for a host, I want to retrieve some of the stanzas in that report (client, osversion). But for many hosts, via a CLI.
Thanks for any assistance you can pass along.

Hi,
you could also go to ~xymon/data/hostdata and there you'll find a directory for every host that sends this data and in every directory you'll find the actual client data among a lot of old ones.
Although I am aware that it might be somewhat easier with builtin funcionality. But maybe for a first try until someone comes up with a much better idea ;-)
Just my 2 cents Torsten

Hi Jon,
have a look at clientlog HOSTNAME instead of xymondboard, that fetches data you get by clicking on client data available on the web interface.
It’s documented in xymon(1). It’s also possible to extract a specific section from the clientlog :)
Combined with xymondboard and a for-loop you should get what you need.
All the best Thomas
