Hi,
I have added the short name to hosts.cfg otpproxy1 not otpproxy1.temenosgroup.com. On the Xymon page i have the conn, disk, cpu, procs... all the tests are active there(it means the server receives the client data report).
But the client seems to send the data report using the FQDN also and the server sees it like ghost client.
How can i do to prevent it.
Regards,
Traian.
Simple stuff first, do you have the client listed in ~/server/etc/hosts.cfg ?
A little clarification: ghost clients are generally clients that are sending data to the server, but the server is not configured to display them.

Hi,
I have installed a xymon client on a CentOS 6 x64 server.
Everything looks good except the fact that even the Xymon
server receives data and its' page is OK(the client is there
diplayed with its' short name) i have the same client
displayed in Ghost Clients(this time with its' FQDN).
I have checked on the client and i have too many files in
xymon/client/tmp folder.
It looks something like this:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 xymon xymon 41 Feb 22 13:17
logfetch.otpproxy1.cfg
-rw-rw-r-- 1 xymon xymon 41 Feb 22 13:17
logfetch.otpproxy1.status
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 35787 Feb 22 13:17
msg.otpproxy1.temenosgroup.com.txt
-rw-rw-r-- 1 xymon xymon 37183 Feb 22 13:17
msg.otpproxy1.txt
-rw-rw-r-- 1 xymon xymon 246 Feb 22 13:17
xymon_vmstat.otpproxy1.2637
-rw-rw-r-- 1 xymon xymon 246 Feb 22 13:14
xymon_vmstat.otpproxy1.temenosgroup.com.2597
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 246 Feb 22 13:17
xymon_vmstat.otpproxy1.temenosgroup.com.2681
It seems like the client is started al least twice....
How can I set it right?
Regards,
Traian.
