[Xymon] Double combo's - returning -1 - xymon 4.3.3

[Rager, Richard R (Rich)]

Hi,
 
Anyone using double combo messages?  I was following the man pages,
which state they are possible, but my tests calculate "-1" and the color
comes out $unknown.

(iam.db&&gam.db) = (-1&&-1) = 1
&unknown iam.db
&unknown gam.db

Sample config from combo.cfg.  I have changed hostnames to protect the
innocent...combos based on the values returned by dbcheck.pl...our DB's
are served on 4 node Oracle Grid clusters, which is why we have alias'
for the DB, such as servername_dbname.
 
Hostnames are defined in hosts.d as "0.0.0.0         gam          #
noconn nonongreen noproppurple:*"  gam/iam/impact all defined the same
in hosts.
 
iam.db = (servername\_iam.audit && servername\_iam.conn &&
servername\_iam.extent && servername\_iam.info && servername\_iam.invobj
&& servername\_iam.locks && servername\_iam.rollback &&
servername\_iam.session && servername\_iam.tblspace &&
servername\_iam.trends && servername\_iam.uptime)
 
gam.db = (servername\_gam.audit && servername\_gam.conn &&
servername\_gam.extent && servername\_gam.info && servername\_gam.invobj
&& servername\_gam.locks && servername\_gam.rollback &&
servername\_gam.session && servername\_gam.tblspace &&
servername\_gam.trends && servername\_gam.uptime)
 
These two above work fine.  They are single layer combo tests...All my
single layer combo tests work.
 
The double combo is this:
 
impact.db = (iam.db && gam.db) - same with our without parenthesys...if
I use single ampersand, color propogates up, but staus still shows
&unknown.
 
 
We have tried multiple combinations taking the combo down to barest
form, and still get the errors (&unknown).
 
Log doesn't really help...
 
combostatus.log.1:21316 2011-06-30 03:58:03 Symbolic
'event.db&&gam.db&&iam.db&&jbpm.db' converted to '-1&&-1&&-1&&-1'

I put the --debug on the cmd in tasks, and not logging much else
helpful.
 
Appreciate some thoughs or suggestions.
