Re: [hobbit] XyMon client for Windows - XyWin.Net



There's already a #xymon IRC channel that is grossly underutilized.

Hi Fred,

You should setup an IRC channel.. It works really well for projects
getting off the ground..

My 2 cents...

Hi Neil,

Very interested.  Take a look at the code section under the JBoss
directory in the XyWin.Net project.  The example, JBossJvmStats inherits
from the XyWinModule class.  The main method, ModuleRun, is called by
XyWin control.  The XyWinTask reference passed to the module has a
method which you use to pass any status messages for delivery to the
server.  The plugin just create messages and leave it to XyWin main to
worry about formatting and delivery.  The ConsoleTest directory has a
simple minded example I use for testing.

We should probably take this conversation offline or to the maillist I
setup for XyWin.Net discussions since this is not directly XyMon
development related.

Thanks.

Fred

Hi There

We have a plug in for bbwin that we created called SQLMon. It allows
you to configure sql scripts to run for testing anything on MSSQL. I
use it to monitor my servers. We want to release it as open source.
Maybe you would like the code to incorporate into your system. It is
written in C#. With this plug-in we monitor replication status,
performance counter, sql transactions per second and so. If you can
write a query and define green, yellow or red status in a simple xml
file you can monitor it with this. While being used for bbwin it can
help you lay out the foundation for SQL specific tests.

Would you be interested?

Regards
neil

Hi Rich,

No. BBwin does everything it says it can do.

It is just that I want it to do a lot more.  To name a few items.

     * Instead of initiating a connection to the XyMon server to

deliver

       its messages, I want it to also wait for XyMon to initiate a
       connection and then accept the Windows client messages.  This
is
       required with clients in a company DMZ.
     * Support SSL encryption of client messages to XyMon
     * Become a "proxy" to accept BBwin client messages from nearby
       clients and then forward them to the XyMon server (either
       immediately or wait for XyMon connection)
     * Support sending to different combinations of servers
     * Support alternate message formats (Standard BB text, XML, web
       services, etc)
     * etc

Take a look at my "about" page at the
http://sourceforge.net/apps/wordpress/xywinnet/about-xywin-net/


Bless you for taking this on, Fred.  It will offer a more capable
alternative to BBWin, which can still be used where it meets
requirements and a .Net footprint is not desirable.

On your "about" page, where you say "formally Hobbit", I think you
meant to write "formerly".

regards,
j.
