Hi,
as you can see, it reports an excessive memory usage
Could you show me the client data behind this report?
Assuming you have the "hostdata" task running, it should be
available from the historical status log via the "Client data available"
link near the bottom of the page.

It is the "[free]" section that is interesting for the memory
report.
Here are two separate [free] sections (from history), that resulted in red alerts:

- two different days.
Also, what version of Xymon are you running on your Xymon server?
Im actually running 4.4.0-1 on the server, as I was bold when I implemented Xymon originally.
