I have a test that is currently being truncated – it's about 400k in size

I tried setting this:

MAXMSG_STATUS="4096"
MAXMSG_CLIENT="4096"
MAXMSG_CLICHG="4096"
MAXMSG_DATA="4096"
MAXMSG_NOTES="4096"
MAXMSG_STACHG="4096"
MAXMSG_PAGE="4096"
MAXMSG_ENADIS="4096"
MAXMSG_USER="4096"

And then this: (to not be 32768)

MAXMSG_STATUS="31744"
MAXMSG_CLIENT="31744"
MAXMSG_CLICHG="31744"
MAXMSG_DATA="31744"
MAXMSG_NOTES="31744"
MAXMSG_STACHG="31744"
MAXMSG_PAGE="31744"
MAXMSG_ENADIS="31744"
MAXMSG_USER="31744"

But still I get:


-bash-3.2$ ./xymon localhost "xymondlog hostname.testname" > /var/tmp/testname.this
-bash-3.2$ ls -lh /var/tmp/testname.this
-rw-r--r-- 1 xymon xymon 391K Jul 10 15:47 /var/tmp/testname.this


Is there some setting I am missing ?

Hi,

I am running 4.3.7 on Linux and have

MAXMSG_CLIENT=900
MAXMSG_STATUS=900

in my xymonserver.cfg and I only get notified if data rushes in that is
bigger than 900kB (!).

So in your case the data could be 4 MB. But I have had issues with
values above 1024 with older versions of XYmon and I haven't tried them
yet with the actual release.

What part of the message is being truncated? are you sending a final blank
line? I've seen on some tests I've wrote that if you don't send a final
line the last part of the message is wiped out.

These two should be enough. NB: You must restart Xymon for this to take effect!

You can verify it with the "ipcs -m" command (must be run as the "xymon" user).

Do you get any messages logged in the xymond.log file about messages being truncated ? If not, then the truncate happens on the sending side.
