- While looking for clues, stumbled upon a oversize status message in
xymond.log. It is oversize (!), but is being sent in the form (echo

Have not gotten far on this, but a visual scan sees nothing missing
when
comparing the status message sent to what is displayed on the web
page.
The "oversize" message comes when the client tries to send a message
that is larger than what we can transfer to the xymond_* modules
processing the data. This is limited by the size of the memory pool
shared between xymond and the xymond_* modules.
You can increase it by setting the MAXMSG_STATUS value in
xymonserver.cfg, the default is 256 KB - see the xymonserver.cfg
man-page. Note that you'll have to restart Xymon on the server before
this has any effect.

MAXMSG_STATUS does not appear in my current xymonserver.cfg file.
I had read that, but not finding it, thought it a typo, etc. I should
have
mentioned that, but. . . Anyway, today is a new day .
I guess I will add that, somewhere in the file, with a larger value,
restart and check the logs.
