<div>I have BBWin installed on a Test PC and it reports to my Xymon server just fine. When I view the client on the Xymon Server, I have Client Data available at the bottom of my tests. This is same contents as the msg.<hostname>.txt in the tmp directory<br>
<br></div><div>However, I have another system that I am testing on at this time, I can't install BBWin on, but I have a series of vbscripts that I am running that gather the same data and write out a msg.<hostname>.txt for that system.<br>
<br></div><div>From what I have read and understand, I can use the BBwincmd.exe to upload that msg.<hostname>.txt to the Xymon server.<br></div><div>For whatever reason, I can not get the client data to show up for this other system.<br>
<br></div><div>I have compared the two msg.<hostname>.txt from each PC and the are basically identical in format.<br><br></div><div>I have looked at BBWinCmd /? and I believe that BBWinCmd <bbdisplay>:<port> uploadmessage <filename> is the correct option, but the Xymon server never shows Client Data for the second host.<br>
<br></div><div>If I have the scripts, run BBWinCmd status <hostname> <test> <status> <reportdata>, all the information displays on the Xymon server just fine.<br><br></div><div>Can someone please help point me in the right direction?<br>
