Hmm OK, I think I see what you mean :)

The client just pulls the command line from what Windows has for the process – so if it had double quotes, we report them. We don't change this data.

You can see exactly the same thing happening in Windows Task Manager if you add the Command Line column – some processes have double-quotes, some do not. I'm not saying the client should match Task Manager exactly as I don't know how Task Manager gets its data, but the content should be the same.

In q1, I think he's saying that some processes are listed with quotes and some are not, and he is asking why it varies.

Hi Mathias,

ad 3.
to ignore a disk/filesystem put

DISK X IGNORE

in 'analysis.cfg', this should prevent X from showing on the status page (and tracking graphs, ...).

Cheers

Hi 

Please use the Xymon mailing list as there are many other helpful people on there who can also help. I have cc'd it on this message. 

1.       Not sure what your question is :) 
2.       No – the script includes everything to run as a Windows service, and running as a service is the only configuration supported. The documentation includes installation instructions ( <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__sourceforge.net_p_xymon_code_HEAD_tree_sandbox_WinPSClient_XymonPSClient.doc&d=DQMFaQ&c=eIGjsITfXP_y-DLLX0uEHXJvU8nOHrUK8IrwNKOtkVU&r=S-aLwpx-PHBTBMIG_c2JczRC0SfuZCmsiH9Iams25FI&m=DUnALgT8I0yFfCNaOlGY7a9YqAGWdVDLJdqXYEJoHPc&s=PBGjQkRyvW4sNTJAsn2Vk9VXat_CJuk6PZ9HXdRGbW4&e=> https://sourceforge.net/p/xymon/code/HEAD/tree/sandbox/WinPSClient/XymonPSClient.doc). 
3.       This is normal – analysis.cfg is not for configuring what is shown, it is for configuring what colours should be assigned to what values (see  <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.xymon.com_help_manpages_man5_analysis.cfg.5.html&d=DQMFaQ&c=eIGjsITfXP_y-DLLX0uEHXJvU8nOHrUK8IrwNKOtkVU&r=S-aLwpx-PHBTBMIG_c2JczRC0SfuZCmsiH9Iams25FI&m=DUnALgT8I0yFfCNaOlGY7a9YqAGWdVDLJdqXYEJoHPc&s=k6CpjMd4bsFesugD9bH7UWry4QW9_ZTa_n3nYSRcvxQ&e=> https://www.xymon.com/help/manpages/man5/analysis.cfg.5.html)

Hi, 

I'm new to use your xymonPSClient. Here I have three questions. 

1. In the section [procs] are the CMD Line with and without quotion Marks. 
C:\Windows\system32\lsass.exe
"C:\Windows\system32\mmc.exe" "C:\Windows\system32\taskschd.msc" /s 

2. Is it possible the start the script also as an schedule? It's the first time for me with powershell. 

3. I have configured the disks in the analysis.cfg 
       DISK C 85 95 
       DISK D 85 95 
  but shown in xymon  are all disks. 
Filesystem        1K-blocks        Used                Avail        Capacity        Mounted        Label                Summary(Total\Avail GB)
