[Xymon] Windows Powershell client v2.21

[Mario De Chenno]

It seems that svcs, who and uptime columns disappear from windows servers 2016 after upgrading to 2.21.
[svcs], [uptime] and [who] sections are in place and in the same format in 2.19 and 2.21 "client data" output, but Xymon does not display them anymore (purple or empty column).
Restoring 2.19 fixes the issue.
I upgraded xymon server from 4.3.27 to 4.3.28 without any change.
How can I help troubleshooting this issue?
Mario

Hi

v2.21 of XymonPSClient has been committed. This has a couple of new minor features and a minor fix, as follows:


·         Added reporting data to the server using UTF8 encoding. This is optional and the default remains to use ASCII. Use at your own risk – there’s a possibility that not all server compiles will support receiving UTF8. (thanks Luboš Pavlíček)

·         Added the ability to include ‘local’ data in the core client message. This replicates functionality found in the Linux client – basically you can have external scripts write data to a file under the local folder (location specified by setting localdatalocation) and it will get written to a section in the client message like [local:<filename>]. You can then use a command like this to retrieve it: xymon 0 "clientlog <client host> section=local:<filename>" (thanks David Boyer for the inspiration!)

·         Fixed the Powershell provider appearing in file, log, dirsize and other tests – you would have only seen this if you were using UNC paths, it would have appeared like this: [file:Microsoft.PowerShell.Core\FileSystem::\\server\share\filename.txt], it should now appear like this: [file:\\server\share\filename.txt]

I have also updated the documentation to include the new features.

I have also updated nssm.exe in the repository. If you are running the client on Windows 10 Creator’s Edition, you will need to use this new updated nssm.exe.

Thanks

Zak
