Well, the obvious explanation would be that the clock on your two Xymon 
servers differ, so on the first server the time is within the clients' 
idea of what time it is, but on the other server it is more than 10 secs 
apart.

Have you checked the clock on your servers ?

Hi,

Xymon version 4.3.10

I have 2 identical xymon servers and specify this in the xymonclient.cfg.

XYMSRV="0.0.0.0"                        # IP address of the Xymon server

XYMSERVERS="192.168.10.1 192.168.10.2"    # IP of multiple Xymon
servers. XYMSRV must be "0.0.0.0".

If the first mentioned server 192.168.10.1 goes down the second happily
just continues and clients sends data to the second one.

But, it will display the cpu on each client as yellow with “System clock
is 47 seconds off (max 10)”

Strange enough it is always 47 seconds on ALL clients.

If I swap the ip’s around XYMSERVERS="192.168.10.2 192.168.10.1” it goes
green again with no time difference.

I can reproduce this any time and it is always 47 seconds.

Is this a bug? or expected behaviour.

Cheers,
