Hi,
Can anyone else confirm this. I have in tasks.cfg, something like so :-
[xxx_refresh]
ENVFILE /apps/xymon/server/etc/xymonserver.cfg
CMD /apps/scripts/xxx_refresh.sh
LOGFILE $XYMONSERVERLOGS/xxx_refresh.log
CRONDATE 15 8-18 * * 1-5
What I deduce by adding echo statements to xxx_refresh.sh, is that if this
shell script completes in less than 60 seconds, xymonlaunch runs it a
second time :-
grep Running xxx_refresh.log
Running as pid 10044 at Mon Jun 2 08:15:03 BST 2014
Running as pid 29168 at Mon Jun 2 09:15:04 BST 2014
Running as pid 15931 at Mon Jun 2 10:15:03 BST 2014
Running as pid 17089 at Mon Jun 2 10:15:59 BST 2014
Running as pid 2805 at Mon Jun 2 11:15:02 BST 2014
Running as pid 4021 at Mon Jun 2 11:15:59 BST 2014
Running as pid 22545 at Mon Jun 2 12:15:00 BST 2014
Running as pid 23730 at Mon Jun 2 12:15:57 BST 2014
I have added a (redundant?) INTERVAL keyword, I have also played around
with GROUP, but i cant stop it running twice. Presumably adding a sleep at
the end of the script would be a workaround, I'll try that next.
