Difference In Columns Bewteen Xymon 4.3.0-0.beta2 < > Xymon 4.2.2?

It runs on the hobbit/Xymon server and is the main place that clients
connect to the server to send status information to the server. As far
as http and ssh is concerned, both of these require tags in the bb-hosts
file to start testing and produce a column.

I've got this in my bb-hosts, same as my other server:
192.168.1.100   xymonitor1.example.net     # BBPAGER BBNET BBDISPLAY bbd http://192.168.1.100/ ssh

Also, in my hobbit-clients.cfg (not sure if it is needed there for my server)

HOST=xymonitor1.example.net

        PROC httpd 1
        PROC cron 1 -1 yellow
        PROC httpd 1 -1 yellow
        PROC hobbitd 5
        PROC %^hobbitd_history 1 -1 yellow "TEXT=Hobbit history"
        PROC %^hobbitd_rrd 2 -1 yellow "TEXT=Hobbit RRD"
        PROC hobbitd
        PROC hobbitlaunch
        PROC sshd
        DIR /opt/admin/xymon/Linux/current/log TRACK
#       DIR %^/var/log TRACK IGNORE=httpd,audit,samba,ppp
        PORT LOCAL=%[\.:]80 STATE=ESTABLISHED min=0 TRACK=http TEXT=web
        FILE /bin/su md5=2xb04acec4f26ea7b20d000e4931d
        FILE %^/var/log/maillog.* TRACK=maillog
        LOG /var/log/maillog DB_RUNRECOVERY COLOR=red

Can anyone else running 4.3.0-0.beta2 please confirm that they are not having the same issues as I?

Thanks,

I do not have "bbd" running, is this started under hobbit-client or
hobbit-server? Does this run as a daemon, or periodically?

Thanks!

The column "conn" should be on every host with a ping test. What is
your bb-hosts?

The column "bbd" should be on the first entry - that's the process
that gets everything rolling. If this isn't running then you have a
problem, so see if it's running.

Hello;


I am running two versions of Xymon, 4.3.0-0.beta2 & 4.2.2. The newer,
albeit "beta" version, shows fewer columns on its display versus the

4.2.2 version. The columns not shown under 4.3.0-0.beta2 are:

bbd

conn

http

ssh

svcs


Must I enable these somewhere? I am pretty certain that my bb-hosts
file is the same on the new server as it is on the older one.


Thank you,
