I have printer:  Printer143

 
It is disabled and was done so using the command:  

                $BB $BBDISP "disable ${HOST}.* -1 offline"    to allow a
'ping' to enable it

It is BLUE and querying it shows that it is BLUE:

                /home/xymon/server/bin/bb 127.0.0.1 "query
Printer142.conn"

               blue <!-- [flags:OrdAsTLe] --> Wed Apr  6 10:58:39 2011
conn ok

If you go to the 'conn' web page for Printer142, it shows:

                BLUE boarder and BLUE ICON but under history, it shows:

                GREEN diamond IP-of-Printer is alive (0.57 ms)

                
The device answers a 'ping'.

 
I when into ADMINISTATION:  Enable/Disable and enabled the Printer.

There are no devices left to Enable.

I stopped and restarted Xymon also.

 
I tried to 'enable' the Printer with:

                /home/xymon/server/bin/bb 127.0.0.1 "enable
Printer142.conn"

                Multiple times

But the device still shows BLUE/DISABLED.

 
I am running Xymon 4.3.0-0.beta2 and have been for over a year and have
not experienced this problem.

I monitor multiple printers in multiple buildings and this is happening
to 14 out of 28 Printers.

 
Is there a way to get these devices ENABLED again short of removing and
loading them again?

 
Thanks,
