Thanks Henrik,
That works perfectly.

I think Ryan is correct in saying that this should be included by default.
You expect it to behave as any client.
I couldn't find any reference about the include statement in any docs I looked in!
Man page for tasks.cfg doesn't have anything.

Hi,

you could add your extra tests to clientlaunch.cfg, but by default this file is not included in the config read from tasks.cfg.

So either add your extra tests directly in tasks.cfg, or add
  include /usr/lib/xymon/client/etc/clientlaunch.cfg
to your tasks.cfg file.


Regards,
Henrik

I obviously missed something.

I got the same issue on 4.3.5 and 4.3.10
I find nothing in the server logs.
There are no client-logs in client/logs (even though specified)
I double checked the vars and they are working.

xymon at host % /usr/local/xymon/client/bin/xymoncmd
2012-10-24 08:22:40 Using default environment file
/usr/local/xymon/client/etc/xymonclient.cfg
$ echo $XYMONCLIENTHOME/logs
/usr/local/xymon/client/logs

In client/etc/clientlaunch.cfg
[prtdiag]
        ENVFILE $XYMONCLIENTHOME/etc/xymonclient.cfg
        CMD $XYMONCLIENTHOME/ext/xymon-prtdiag.ksh
        LOGFILE $XYMONCLIENTHOME/logs/xymon-prtdiag.log
        INTERVAL 5m

It does all the normal client tests, client/tmp has all the normal
client-tmp stuff

Hi,


I am a bit confused on how to add extra tests to the xymon-server 
itself.

In server/etc/tasks,cfg

I run the [xymonclient]

If I would like to add some other tests like ZFS and prtdiag I would 
have though I add them as in any client in

client/etc/clientlaunch.cfg


But to get these tests work I have to add them in server/etc/tasks,cfg


What am I missing?
I'm pretty sure you don't need to do that. The client should read
clientlaunch and run what's in the cfg.
