[Xymon] Xymon WinPSclient central config examples

[SebA]

For example this does not work:
 
 PROC "SVC:TermService C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe -k termsvcs" 1 1 red
"TEXT=Terminal Services"

But it is found in the procs output...  I have determined that much simpler
SVC checks do work though, so thanks Dave.
 
In client-local.cfg, should this work:
[host=SQL-CLU-N[12]]
as an alternative to:
[SQL-CLU-N1]
and repeating everything in:
[SQL-CLU-N2]

What should I do if I want to match the latest log file like this (on
WinPSclient)
log:C:\Temp\myServiceLog15-09-16.6.log:10240
where the date is the date the service was last restarted and the number
before the .log is incremented when the log file is rotated, which is at
least once per day?  What kind of wildcards can I use, and can I put
commands in backticks?  And if I can use backticks, should they be in
PowerShell?

Kind regards, 

Sebastian

SebA,


      I don't think there needs to be anything special in the
client-local.cfg for parsing PROCS  (and PORTS).

Here's a few of my rules:


SVC %^Netbackup.Client.Service$

SVC XymonPSClient

PORT "LOCAL=%(0:445)$" state=LISTENING TEXT=smb

PORT "LOCAL=%(0:3389)$ state=LISTENING TEXT=rdp



Note, I had to use the periods in the "Netbackup Client Service" because of
the spaces in the service name.

I added the PORTS for additional ref in parsing the data.



Dave

Hi, does anyone have any examples of monitoring logs and procs using Xymon
WinPSclient that they can share with me?  client-local.cfg and analysis.cfg
 
Or tell me why this does not match anything when, excluding the %^ and $,
this is what is displayed in the procs listing (names changed):
 
 PROC "%^SVC:WindowsServiceName C:\Services\MyLongServerName.exe$" 1 1 red
"TEXT=My Service"

This is returning red when the service is running - 0 instances found.

Kind regards,

SebA
