There are not enough stars in that crontab entry. There are 5 fields
total and you've only used the one with the minutes so there should be
four more. Check man 5 crontab -- I always have to check which field is
which.

Also, I don't know your platform or care to look it up, but there is
normally a log associated with cron execution that probably would have
alerted you to that problem. Might want to Google a bit.

Hi,

To avoid the status goes from green/red to purple we can add "+2000"
like some big positive value after $BB $BBDISP "status+2000 ........
in the client side custom script.

Where can i get the "$PATH_TO_BBCMD".
In the "clientlaunch.cfg" file i configured as follows:
[Test]
        ENVFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/etc/hobbitclient.cfg
        CMD $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/script/TEST/TEST.sh
        LOGFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/logs/TEST/TEST.log
        INTERVAL 15m


In the cron job file named ("corn.txt") i configured as follows for
testing purpose:
20,22,24,26,28,30,32,34,36,38,40,42,44,46,48,50,52,54,56,58 20,21 * *
* /home/xymon/client/start /home/xymon/client/script/TEST/TEST.sh

Every 2 minutes .log file should update. But here it is not updating.
TEST.log file updating after every 15 minutes only.

Kindly help me for the same.

With Thanks & Regards,
Jayanta.

Oops, good point!  I wrote that wondering how much it had to do with
Xymon; perhaps had I considered it going purple I would have realised
it was more to do with Xymon!

And at 18:30 every weekday that'll go purple...
It would be better to add code to the top of the script to check the
date/time and to send an automatic green (or perhaps blue) status whenever
the date/time falls outside the times you want to watch.

Hi Jayanta,

Create a cron job as follows:

*/15     9-18     *     *     *         $PATH_TO_BBCMD
$PATH_TO_YOUR_SCRIPT

Optionally if business hours were only Monday to Friday the last
asterix would be replaced by 1-5.

Hi All,

I am using Xymon 4.2.3.
Could anyone please let me know how can I write a sample script in
Client side which should execute every 15 minutes on business
hours(9:00 am to 6 pm) every day.

With Thanks & Regards,
Jayanta.

I didn't found any file named "tasks.cfg" file in client side.
Then you'll have to run the script via your system 'cron' utility.


Regards,
Henrik
