what I always include in my scripts is a test mode snippet:<br>
<br>
# Test-Mode ?<br>
# TEST=0 => works in cooperation with Xymon agent (default)<br>
# TEST=1 => for testing, results to stdout ("TEST=1 ./bb-testname.sh")<br>
# TEST>1 => for testing, but sending results to Xymon server manually<br>
TEST=${TEST:-"0"}<br>
if [ "$TEST" != "0" ]<br>
then<br>
# if TEST mode, we have to manually set the env<br>
BBHOME="$HOME/xymon/server"<br>
. $BBHOME/etc/xymonserver.cfg<br>
BBQUERYCMD=$BB<br>
[ "$TEST" = "1" ] && BB="echo"<br>
fi<br>
<br>
(based on my old BB scripts, read BBHOME=XYMONHOME)<br>
Then I can easy do all manual testing with<br>
TEST=1 $HOME/ext/testscript.sh<br>
for stdout, and with TEST=2 for direct send to xymon server, if you want to<br>
update the status manually, or check the html output.<br>

You can set up the environment properly by prefixing the script with<br>
xymoncmd. E.g.<br>
<br>
/home/xymon/server/bin/xymoncmd your_script,sh<br>

Well, if it runs outside of xymon, and that’s how we do most of our custom<br>
scripts, then you need to make sure your environment is correct. So that<br>
the script knows the pertinent xymon information.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Did you possibly run the script as yourself vs root, and so it couldn’t<br>
read the xymonclient.cfg file or something?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Without details and/or output of your hand running of the script, we can<br>
only guess. My guess is that you either didn’t have path to the xymon<br>
command or you didn’t have the server ip right in that command.<br>

ohh, forgot to mention. The script is set on client side so not related to<br>
tasks.cfg<br>

If you are running the script from tasks.cfg. You probably want to use<br>
xymoncmd to run the script, so you’ll get the proper environment.<br>

Subject: [Xymon] manually running custom script not changing the status<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I have a script which runs after 24 hrs interval, if we get an alert we<br>
work on it and after resolving the issue I tried to run that custom script<br>
manually but it didnt change the status into green.<br>
<br>
I had to wait until its next run, i.e. after 24 hrs.<br>
<br>
How can I run the custom script before its next run time which will change<br>
the xymon status if the issue is resolved?<br>
<br>
