I am setting up a production xymon monitoring server. I have a
development one already running and was having the clients report to
both. I had not thought this setup would be problematic, (being use
to old style Big brother) but as I am working on a LOG monitoring
setup - it dawned on me that both prod & dev xymon server installs
have a client-local.cfg.
Is there any kind of priority in the list of servers implied from the
client point of view?
on any given client I have
/etc/default/xymon-client
XYMONSERVERS="10.65.1.171 10.65.20.51"
If by some dumbness of me I end up with different client-local.cfg
files on prod and dev - which one will end up on the client?
When you have two recipients in a client configuration, then the
server response is returned by the first server in the list. So in
your case, the client would get the client-local.cfg entry found on
10.65.1.171.
With BBWin, it seems to be the last listed server that it pays attention
to in central mode.
<bbwin>
<setting name="bbdisplay" value="1.1.2.2">
<setting name="bbdisplay" value="1.1.2.3">
Would use 1.1.2.3 copy of client-local.cfg
