[Xymon] HTTP response test?

[Matthew Moldvan]

I would think you could easily do this by using "time wget <yoururl>" and 
setting it up as a cron job to report the time taken back to your Xymon 
server ... setting up the graph would be a little more difficult, but is 
possible using NCV or other options through your Xymon server.

Good luck,
Matt.

Re: [Xymon] HTTP response test?



i was acutally thinking about this and i think the best way to achieve it 
to have a file of a certain size sitting on the webserver and then 
retrieving it and timing how long that takes.  I was after how long a page 
takes to load in a web browser.

Thanks anyway for the help
