Orange background color?
list Becker Christian
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?

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. server/www/gifs-L:=> ls bkg* bkg-blue.gif bkg-clear.gif bkg-green.gif bkg-purple.gif bkg-red.gif bkg-yellow.gif Bakkies

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?

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. HTH, -jc

That would be a nice addition. And not just for the non-green page. It would be nice for all pages, and propagate up to the top.

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
