Take a look at the client data.  The very last few lines should like this:


     [clock]

     epoch: 1557407707.455481

     local: 2019-05-09 09:15:07 EDT

If not, then the report is being chopped off because it's too big.  There are a couple of setting in the xymonserver.cfg file:

MAXMSG_STATUS
The maximum size of a "status" message in kB, default: 256. Status messages are the ones that end up as columns on the web display. The default size should be adequate in most cases, but some extension scripts can generate very large status messages - close to 1024 kB. You should only change this if you see messages in the xymond log file about status messages being truncated.
MAXMSG_CLIENT
The maximum size of a "client" message in kB, default: 512. "client" messages are generated by the Xymon client, and often include large process-listings. You should only change this if you see messages in the xymond log file about client messages being truncated.

Good day

On one of my very busy severs (Centos7, tomcat8.5) the proc test fails

I noticed that on the SERVICES=procs page for the server only about 4 line are shown from the ps output.
The problem only happens when the server is busy.
I added more ram to the server but the result is the same.
Memory usage on server is ok (Reported by xymon):
                                                Used                     Total                      Percentage
Real/Physical               18464M               24070M                     70%
Actual                                9041M                 7999M                    37%
Swap/Page                             39M                   7999M                    0%

The xymon client was installed from the Terabithia repo
xymon-client-4.3.28-1.el7.x86_64

What do I need to change in my configs to remedy the problem please.

Kind regards
