Do you perhaps have "NOPROPPURPLE" defined in hosts.cfg?  Or is
"--noproppurple" on the command line for xymongen (in tasks.cfg), or in
XYMONGENOPTS (in xymonserver.cfg)?

 Hello out there,


i do not know exactly whether there is a problem in our Xymon config or
if our Xymon system has a failure.


We have a main view that contains a page called “Windows”. In this
“Windows” view there is a subpage called “Exchange-Server”.

Now we had the situation that the BBWin has failed on a server that is
placed in this view “Exchange-Server” which is a subpage of the “Windows”
view from the main view.


The problem was that the purple status was not shown on the main view, but
when changing to the “Windows” view, we recognized the purple status of the
subpage “Exchange-Server”.

At this time I cannot say if the purple status was shown in the nongreenview.


But: shouldn’t it have shown this purple status on the main view also? I
think I can remember that I’ve seen a purple icon on the main view in the
past, but I cannot remember if this has been in a “first level” sub-view
from the main view or a “second level” sub-view (a subpage of a subpage…).


Can anyone tell me what’s wrong here – or did I understand something
wrong? The affected server doesn’t have a noprop-statement in the
hosts.cfg.


Our Xymon is 4.3.10 running on RHEL 6.1 64 Bit.
