Talk:System Monitoring with Xymon/Other Docs/FAQ

Reformatting comments
I hope you don't mind that I changed the Solaris/Developer error lines from questions to part of a question -- they didn't seem to belong in the FAQ index because they weren't answered, thus failing the "A" in "FAQ". Others don't seem to belong either; maybe a Frequently Unanswered Questions? ;) Also the SMS variables seemed to be more appropriately formatted as a table, although admittedly it takes up more space that way.--Goldfndr (talk) 09:34, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

ClientMonitoring using customized parameter.
Hi,

I want to monitor my client with localy configured monitoring parameters instead of server based parameters.This is required for my AIX servers running with different applications. We have different application mount points with different size and i want to set threshold values for mount points per server wise configured localy.I can see only three files under /xymon/etc folder in client; hobbitclient.cfg clientlaunch.cfg localclient.cfg

After adding --local in clientlaunch.cfg below parameter, the web page stop to show any status of CPU,Disk and other monitoring part,

[client] ENVFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/etc/hobbitclient.cfg CMD $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/bin/hobbitclient.sh --local LOGFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/logs/hobbitclient.log INTERVAL 1m I added the host entry to hobbitclient.cfg and localclient.cfg, even its not showing any alert on server webpage for this client(axmnyz). HOST= UP     1h LOAD   5.0 10.0 DISK   * 60 65 MEMPHYS 100 101 MEMSWAP 50 80 MEMACT 90 97

Kindly assist me to know the files that need to change on Client and Server side to make it enable and effective.
