In an older version I had used: MAXMSG_DATA="1048576", but I'm not up to speed on 4.3.2, things may have changed.....
Are you able to set MAXMSG_DATA to a meg?

Subject: [Xymon] Problem with MAXMSG_DATA, possible bug?

I'm having trouble with a server not reporting procs, and I'm seeing
this error in hobbitd.log:

2011-05-18 22:46:55 Oversize data/client msg from 10.100.32.150
truncated (n=877375, limit 524288)

Now, I've played around with MAXMSG_DATA and MAXMSG_CLIENT, always
restarting xymond, but I cannot get that limit above 524288. If I set
very low values, I get a lower limit, but I can't seem to set higher
values and get a *higher* limit.

Right now I've got

MAXLINE="1572864"
MAXMSG_STATUS="4096"
MAXMSG_DATA="4096"

Am I missing some dependency?

(this is xymon 4.3.2 on Oracle Linux)

thanks Betsy
