Hi Henrik !

Thanks for reply !
I tried what you suggested but it didn't work I did not get anything but the following:

xymon at hpivm010:/opt/xymon # xymoncmd xymond_channel --channel=status cat
2012-08-30 12:45:10 Using default environment file /opt/xymon/server/etc/xymonserver.cfg

2012-08-30 12:48:37 Peer not up, flushing message queue

If you look at the top command then you see the process xymond_channel is consuming huge amount of cpu:

This is what you get when doing a tusc of the process

seems like the process is hanging ...

any ideas ?

The only reason I can think of is that the various xymond_* modules won't run for some reason.

See if you can run them by hand. You can disable all of the
xymond_channel+xymond_* tasks in tasks.cfg to avoid the system spinning out of control, then start Xymon. You should only have xymonlaunch and xymond running (xymonnet and the client will also run, once every 5 minutes).

Then - as the user xymond runs as! - run "xymoncmd xymond_channel --channel=status cat". This should result in all incoming status-messages being dumped on your screen. If that works, then try "xymoncmd xymond_channel --channel=client xymond_client --debug" - this should start the client data handler, so you should start getting status updates from your clients (cpu, disk, memory etc).

Henrik
