<div dir="ltr">I am setting up a production xymon monitoring
server. I have a development one already running and was
having the clients report to both. I had not thought this
setup would be problematic, (being use to old style Big
brother) but as I am working on a LOG monitoring setup - it
dawned on me that both prod & dev xymon server installs
have a client-local.cfg.<br>
<br>
Is there any kind of priority in the list of servers implied
from the client point of view? <br>
<br>
on any given client I have<br>
<br>
/etc/default/xymon-client<br>
<br>
XYMONSERVERS="10.65.1.171 10.65.20.51"<br>
<br>
<br>
If by some dumbness of me I end up with different
client-local.cfg files on prod and dev - which one will end up
on the client?</div>

<p>When you have two recipients in a client configuration, then
the server response is returned by the first server in the list.
So in your case, the client would get the client-local.cfg entry
found on 10.65.1.171.<br>

With BBWin, it seems to be the last listed server that it pays
attention to in central mode.<br>
<br>
<bbwin><br>
<setting name="bbdisplay" value="1.1.2.2"><br>
<setting name="bbdisplay" value="1.1.2.3"><br>
<br>
Would use 1.1.2.3 copy of client-local.cfg<br>
