Hi.

We had this problem as well on a 4.3.0 install. I found on the mailing list that it was related to too big client messages. We increased the maxmsg_status variable on the server, and since that it has been working fine.
Check your hobbit log if you have oversized status messages from clients.

it recovers automatically for me, just annoying to get emails with false positives.

I have seen this too a couple times but not always on DMZ machines.
I saw it on both linux and solaris and all I did was restart the client software and it fixed itself on next update.

Hi,

I am running xymon 4-3-0-beta2 ( revision 6223 ).
I am having problems with clients ( all running in dmz mode using msgcache ) where they sometimes show alert for disk and memory, and usually check shows usage as several hundred % which is obviously due to some error in the check. I have not found out why this happens.

Anyone else with similar problems ? and maybe found a solution or a workaround ?
