Behavior<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Xymon users,<BR><BR>Once upon a time I had a xymon client called
"hostname". In all the xymon server config files(hosts.cfg, analysis.cfg,
alerts.cfg) the client was written as "hostname" in the configs when setting
its properties and behavior(alerts, warnings, ect..). Now I wish to change the
way "hostname" appears on the xymon webpage to "<A
href="http://hostname.example.org">hostname.example.org</A>". <BR><BR>Bear in
mind this "hostname" has a xymon client install so I can receive all standard
and custom reports & scripts. After changing all the server config files,
keeping them constant but now replaced every instance of "hostname" to "<A
href="http://hostname.example.org">hostname.example.org</A>" the reports are
not showing up on the webpage. I can still see icons and reports for conn,
ssh, http, info.. but NOT the ones that are required by a client install(disk,
cpu, memory, procs, ports, etc...) all those reports disappeared after the
name change.<BR><BR>XYmon server and client service restarts didn't help. I
also hard rebooted the xymon server and that didn't help either. If I were to
change "<A href="http://hostname.example.org">hostname.example.org</A>" back
to "hostname", all the reports and tests will show up again! I'm confused
because I changed the names of another server and it was fine. So am I missing
something stupid? Anybody have any ideas or experience this
before?<BR><BR>Appreciate all the responses, Thanks,<BR><FONT
