Hi,
      Thank you for pointing the mistake; but even after changing the
setting, it is not working. Here are my changed settings in
hobbit-clients.cfg
Hosts are host1.abc.pqr.xyz----host50.abc.pqr.xyz
HOST=%.*.abc.pqr.xyz
LOG /var/log/messages lockup COLOR=red

DEFAULT
         # These are the built-in defaults.
         UP      1h
         LOAD    18.0 20.0
         DISK    * 90 95
         MEMPHYS 100 101
         MEMSWAP 50 80
         MEMACT  90 97

Even after restarting server and client, it is showing the same behaviour.
Kindly let me know i

i am using xymon 4.2.2. I want that each client should show msgs
    red if
lockup word comes in /var/log/messages.

~xymon/server/etc/hobbit-clients.cfg
DEFAULT
       # These are the built-in defaults.
       UP      1h
       LOAD    18.0 20.0
       DISK    * 90 95
       MEMPHYS 100 101
       MEMSWAP 50 80
       MEMACT  90 97
       PROC cron
       PROC /opt/PBS/bin/myscript.sh
       LOG /var/log/messages lockup COLOR=red

    You should Never, Ever, put PROC and LOG settings in the
    DEFAULT section.

    Move them into a "HOST=*" section, before the DEFAULT one.

You may want to try:

LOG /var/log/messages  %(?-i)lockup COLOR=red


 From hobbit-clients.cfg(5):
...
                                          Note that Xymon defaults
      to  case-insensitive  pattern  matching; if that is not what
      you want, put  "(?-i)"  between  the  "%"  and  the  regular
      expression to turn this off. E.g. "%(?-i)WARNING" will match
      the word WARNING only when it is upper-case.
