Hi!
We have an issue with RHEL7 and xymon-client 4.3.26
In client-local.cfg on our xymon server we have these log rules:
[linux]
log:/var/log/daemon.log:102400
log:/var/log/kern.log:102400
log:/var/log/syslog:102400
log:/var/log/messages:102400
ignore MARK
[rhel3]
log:/var/log/messages:102400
ignore MARK
We have an old RHEL5 server which reports the following to Xymon and thus get matched against [rhel3] in client-local.cfg:
[collector:]
client oldserver,xxx,com.rhel3 rhel3
However, unconfigured the RHEL7 server reports:
[collector:]
client newserver,xxx,com.linux linux
Setting CLIENTOS="rhel3" in /etc/sysconfig/xymon-client only changes the first:
[collector:]
client newserver,xxx,com.rhel3 linux
We need it to report:
[collector:]
client newserver,xxx,com. rhel3 rhel3
Any idea where to change the setting for that?
The issue is that RHEL doesn't have daemon.log, kern.log etc, so these turn up as warnings in the msgs test
Regards,
Johan
