[Xymon] Question concerning port monitoring

[Tim McCloskey]

I might be missing your question.  If I want to monitor certain ports for host xyz and other ports for host abc I can tell the software to do this by configuring the server side hobbit-clients.cfg (analysis.cfg in xymon).  These tests could also be for the same ports on different hosts.  Make sure that the changes appear above the DEFAULT stanza in the file.


For example: 

HOST=fred
....
PORT LOCAL=%(:13782|:13722|:13724|:13783) STATE=LISTEN MIN=1 COLOR=yellow TEXT=netbackup
....

HOST=jane
...
PORT LOCAL=%(:1372|:1322|:1372|:137) STATE=LISTEN MIN=1 COLOR=yellow TEXT=splat
...


Tim
