Hello,
I'm running a xymon-client on a Debian Jessie.
OS: Debian
OS-Release: 8 (Jessie)
xymon-client version : 4.3.17
The error happend due to a nfs ressource not responding. I suppose that
as xymon launch "df" to get information and as the nfs was hanging, the
xymon-client is no able to detect that the df hangs and it does not send
any data to the server. Worst, the xymon-client is not verbose at all,
it does not tell this test (df) takes too long to accomplish.
Many thanks for xymon.
This will happen on every OS with an NFS mount that is not responding.
There's really not a workaround. You should know when that's happening
because it should go purple in my experience.
There are NFS mount options on most platforms that will help mitigate
this type of issue.
