Hi ! .. i want to monitor the /var/run/yum.pid file for hanging yum-process ... So my hobbit-client.cfg looks like FILE /var/run/yum.pid mtime>86400 noexist I want an alert, if the file exits and it's older than 24 hours,but i've got an alarm if it's exists and not if it's exist and already 24hours old ...Got somebody an idea how it works ? .. or did i something misunderstood ... thanks & cheers Martin To unsubscribe from the hobbit list, send an e-mail to hobbit-unsubscribe (at) hswn.dk
I needed to do same, so here is what I did : in client-local.cfg (hosted on xymon server) : [your_host] file:`find /var/run -name "yum.pid" -mtime +86400` Then in hobbit-clients.cfg (hosted on xymon server too) : HOST=yourhost FILE /var/run/yum.pid red NOEXIST Of course, you can use yellow instead of red.Then reload your xymon server (restart is not needed) and wait a little. The client on your host will ask xymon server the section in client-local.cfg, then it'll apply it, so the changes should take about 15minutes to be applied.
