<font size=2 face="sans-serif">At last I had found solution myself:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">stop XyMon both on client and server</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">and remove all files under XyMon tmp
directory:</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">alert.chk</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">alert.chk.sub</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">xymond.chk </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">and others </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">I am not sure which exactly file was
wrong ( I suppose it was xymond.chk on server), but now it is working.</font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">The only backside effect - all metrics
status last change time reset so all metric images are with "round"
smiling gifs.</font>
