[Xymon] Raspberry Pi Xymon Server

[Becker Christian]

Hi,


i know it's an old thread, but....:

I also have a Raspberrypi Model B running Xymon; i compiled version 4.3.17 on it. I have a 2GB USB stick with ext4 mounted as /opt/xymon and Xymon is installed there.
The Xymon installation itself is running like a charm, i'm monitoring about 25 devices with it.

But every now and then the filesystem in /opt/xymon seems the get destroyed. This has happened three times now; sometimes a filesystem check does the trick, sometimes not.

My questions (I know this is a Xymon mailing list and not related to the Raspberrypi, but...)
-is this because of the Raspberrypi or because of the USB stick (the stick is a "normal" stick, not an especially fast one....)
-is an USB stick a good choice for a Xymon setup? Or is a hard disk the better choice?

Regards
Christian

On the Raspberry Pi, apt-get install xymon seems to do the trick.

I have a 32GB SD card and also an external USB drive on it so plenty of free disk space for any logs.
