Best way to dealing with 100's of tests or Can I build a page that scrolls down instead of across?

Hello

Version : xymon 4.3.3

when applying the patch, i got this error

patching file xymongen/loadlayout.c
Hunk #3 succeeded at 419 with fuzz 2 (offset 2 lines).
Hunk #4 succeeded at 449 (offset -10 lines).
Hunk #5 FAILED at 490.
Hunk #6 FAILED at 511.
Hunk #7 succeeded at 501 with fuzz 2 (offset -18 lines).
Hunk #8 FAILED at 534.
Hunk #9 succeeded at 525 with fuzz 1 (offset -18 lines).
3 out of 9 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file xymongen/loadlayout.c.rej


the layout seems a bit different, should  i use version 4.3.5 ?

cheers
Nico

How have you handled multiple tests?
Is there a way to write custom xymon pages that scroll down instead of across?

Try this patch - it is against the current "trunk" version, but I think it will work on any 4.3.x release, since xymongen hasn't changed as far as I recall.

This defines three new "page" categories in the hosts.cfg file, "vpage", "vsubpage" and "vsubparent" that work just like the "page"/"subpage"/"subparent" definitions, except that they have the hostnames across, and the testnames down. "group" definitions are ignored.

Obviously you should not have too many hosts on a page.


You can what it looks like on http://www.xymon.com/xymon/vert/


(Not bad for a couple of hours work on a saturday morning, imho).
