Xymon server reporting to itself and another Xymon server

[shea4th at comcast.net]

Hi All, 



I have two new Xymon servers A and B.  All clients will send data to both servers 

excerpt from xymonclient.cfg: 

XYMSRV="0.0.0.0"                        # IP address of the Xymon server 

XYMSERVERS="serverA serverB"                         # IP of multiple Xymon servers. XYMSRV must be "0.0.0.0". 


No problem so far.  

I want serverA to be a client to itself and serverB and vice versa.  Modifying the xymonclient.cfg file on the 

server sends the server (as a client), but also all the client data that reports to it. 

Xymond excerpt: 

Multi-source statuses 

   clientA:conn                    reported by serverB and serverA 

   clientB:conn                    reported by serverB and serverA 

   clientC:conn                    reported by serverB and serverA 

... 



Latest error messages: 

Flapping detected for clientA:conn - 5 changes in 620 seconds 

Flapping detected for clientB:conn - 5 changes in 620 seconds 

Flapping detected for clientB:conn - 5 changes in 620 seconds 



So obviously that's not the way to do it.  Do I have to do anything with xymonproxy? I don't want to change 

all my clients. 



Thanks in advance
