I don't recall seeing that on a xymon web page, but it's available from the
command line:

     xymon localhost "xymondboard fields=hostname,testname,validtime"

validtime is the unix timestamp in seconds when the status is no longer
valid.  Past that time, it turns purple.  Subtract that from "date +%s" and
divide by 60 to get minutes.

Hello,

Using Xymon 4.3.7, if I use the 'xymon' command and specify a status
lifetime, as mentioned in the man page, is there anywhere on the server
that I can see what the lifetime is? That is, the date/time when the
status should expire. I'm assuming it must be held somewhere in order
for Xymon to know when to expire it :-)


Thanks,

John.
