Hi Thomas,

Thanks for the suggestion.
Going to take a look at it, this would allow us to move forward.

But I think adjusting the source code would be, in my opinion, the most logical solution. Then it is maintained in newer version also.

please take a look at UP and CLOCK configuration:
http://xymon.sourceforge.net/xymon/help/manpages/man5/analysis.cfg.5.html

However, it's not shown in separate columns. This could be achieved by querying the cpu status similar to this...

xymon localhost "xymondboard test=cpu color=red fields=hostname,msg"

... and adding the desired columns for each host:

xymon localhost "status HOSTNAME.clock red"

http://xymon.sourceforge.net/xymon/help/manpages/man1/xymon.1.html

That's not a very nice solution but at least there is no need to modify the source.

Best regards
Thomas Kähn
