Neil,

you can try to call the builtin page red.html instead of nongreen.html.
This is default part of Xymon and maybe already provides what you want
without any patch or config change (you can easy add this to the xymonmenu
for direct access).

Hi folks,


I?m currently building a new Xymon server to move away from our old 4.3.4
server running on Centos 5.


The new one is running version  Xymon 4.3.30-1.el8.terabithia on RHEL 8


On the previous version, the person who built it made a change to
criticalview.c  to change the following


/*static int mincolor = COL_YELLOW;*/

static int mincolor = COL_RED;


This means that the default for the critical view is red only which is
what we want.


However, because we have now taken the decision to use the Terabithia
RPM?s for ease of upgrade in future I can?t make the same change as I can?t
be sure that the criticalview.c that I could download from the normal
source is the same as the one in the Terabithia RPM and it also complicates
the ease of upgrade bit.


I?ve found the XYMONGENOPTS in xymonserver.cfg and a suggestion on the web
that looked like adding ?critical-reds-only to the options would give me
what I want but it doesn?t seem to work.


Does anyone know if there is a way of doing this with minimal change so
it?s something I can script for future upgrades?


Kind Regards,


Neil*.*
