A few years ago I built a client for a Macos server. The target server is
quite a few versions of macos old so probably not what you are looking for.
I just built it on my Mac laptop then bundled it all up in a tar file and
copied it over and did some installation. My current laptop is an M2 so I
doubt I could do it again right now.
As I recall the xymonclient-darwin script was mostly fine. There was a
little entertainment with the way Apple manages it's disks these days. I've
attached what looks like the changes I made as a diff.
I'm not at $work at the moment so I can't check exactly what else I did. I
must have done something to get it to auto start at boot. Probably didn't
keep any notes either. I'll try to have a look next time I'm there.
Also quite possible that rclient will work well. There's some fixes that I
had to do recently to account for some dropped commands from rclient when
talking to FreeBSD systems so that may also be relevant.
Cheers,
Brian

I would guess the script in the repository is the latest version. I'm not
a Mac user, so take that as an opinion, not a fact. As part of the main
distribution, any changes would have been rolled into that file.

Where would I obtain a semi-current xymonclient-darwin.sh script? I will
try to use the one I found in the latest branch on Sourceforge that JC has
been working on, but it was last edited in 2015.
https://sourceforge.net/p/xymon/code/HEAD/tree/branches/4.x-master/client/xymonclient-darwin.sh
Does anyone have anything a little more current that they use?
Thank You,

Nothing to install on the remote host, other than SSH keys. It fires the
appropriate xymonclient-[OS].sh script down the SSH connection and collects
the results. I don't know anything about Macs, but the
xymonclient-darwin.sh script is for MacOS X so that might be a good
starting point.

Anyone have a modern xymon-client script or app that will run on Mac?
I'm aware of the macport method, but that's a large footprint and heavy
handed solution to the simple need of collecting performance data and
uploading it to the Server.
