[Xymon] analysis.cfg not working?

[Clark, Sean]

It just doesn't appear to work at all



I changed it so there were no duplicate groups


Xymon host.cfg:


group fortification
10.24.32.75 unified-monitor-01.somedomain.com #  NET:xymon-server

Analysis.cfg:

DISPLAYGROUP="fortification"
       PROC /usr/bin/pt-heartbeat 2 8 red


That line gets applied to all hosts as a default, not the single host in the group 'fortification'


Xymond_client —test ?dump   shows it applied to all (and the gui did as well)

Shows blank:

LOG /var/log/mysqld.log MATCH=ERROR COLOR=red HOST=%rio-db-*.* (line: 332)
[ that is last stanza before    the DISPLAYGROUP= line, which is below]
PROC /usr/bin/pt-heartbeat 2 8 red (line: 336)
UP 3600 -1 (line: 342)
LOAD 1.00 3.00 (line: 343)
DISK * 90% 95% 0 -1 red (line: 344)
MEMREAL 100 101 (line: 345)



So that DISPLAYGROUP="Bastion" line gets lumped in with the default lines

So, I can see why it's red/applied to all – it thinks it should be

But, I knew that much already, hence my email to the group :-D

The man page for analysis.cfg   says DISPLAYGROUP='blah' is one of the valid ways of selecting dudes… but then it's missing

Is it an issue with analysis.cfg? Or because I use the group bastion several times in hosts.cfg, or?

Could be the multiple listings of the same group.  Not sure.

Have you tried running "xymond_client --test" and see what that shows?
