[Xymon] Script launched but no column appears

[Ward, Martin]

The column will appear when the Xymon server receives the data packet from the client and if it can match the client data packet to a configured client.

I would first check your ghost clients report to see if anything appears there, maybe the name of the client isn't matching the name you have configured in Xymon?
If nothing appears in your ghost client report or you are 100% sure that the client name is configured correctly in Xymon then check that the client packets are being received by Xymon; personally I use snoop to confirm that the data is being received because it's a tool I know lots about, I am sure there are better tools or Xymon log files that could be checked though, others will know better than I.

Have a look at the Ghost Clients report.

Hi,

I've recently add a client perl script on some of my linux servers but the
Xymon server does not add the column.

The script seems to work correctly because I can see it data with bb-
hostsvc.sh. I explicitly add the column name in bb-host but nothing's happen.

Any ideas?

Regards,
