Orange background color?

I think what Christian is asking is more for having bkg-red.gif and
bkg-red-ack.gif as backgrounds, similar to how individual tests are done.
Xymongen would correlate everything on a page (and sub-pages) together,
and if there were red alerts, but everything was acknowledged, a
bkg-red-ack.gif would be called instead (which could then be replaced with
orange in their case).

It's an interesting idea, but I don't believe there's a way to do that
with the existing release. A patch to xymongen would be needed.

The background is actually a repeating gif. I changed mine so that I can
tell my dev xymon display from my prod xymon display. I assume you can
change the "red" background to be orange.

bkg-blue.gif  bkg-clear.gif  bkg-green.gif  bkg-purple.gif  bkg-red.gif

Subject: [Xymon] Orange background color?


Hello all,

we have a setup of Xymon 4.3.17, monitoring 711 devices at this time.

Our operating staff is using the “All non-green view” as their starting
point. Therefore it could be the situation, that one needs to acknowledge
a red alert, so that the icon called “red-ack.gif” is being shown.
In our setup, this icon “red-ack.gif” is not the default one; we are using
an orange icon instead of the default red one.

Now my question is just a cosmetical question: if -for example- we have
only one red alert on the “All non-green view” (or on any page

), and this

single red alert would be acknowledged, then “our” orange icon is being
 shown for this acknowledged alert, but the background color remains red.
Would it be possible to define an orange background colour just for that
case, if there’s only one already acknowledged orange (red) icon per
page?
