Yellow on 90% Free Swap Space

Hello gents,

I was wondering if any of you could help me understand how come, even though xymon shows 90%free swap for some host, I get the Yellow alert. I don't have any specific settings for that host only and the DEFAULTS are also fine. How could I make that Yellow warning fixed ?

Cheers.

Ray

What OS is your client running?
What Xymon version are you using?
Is your client configured for "server-side" or "client-side" analysis? (If there is a "Client data" link on the memory status page, then you have "server-side" which is the default).

What do you get if you run the xymond_client in test mode:

$ xymoncmd xymond_client --test
2014-02-04 10:39:03 Using default environment file /usr/lib/xymon/client/etc/xymonserver.cfg
Hostname (.=end, ?=dump, !=reload) []: localhost   <-- enter your hostname here
Hosttype []:
Test (cpu, mem, disk, proc, log, port): mem
Phys: Yellow at 100, red at 101
Swap: Yellow at 50, red at 80
Act.: Yellow at 90, red at 97


Regards,
Henrik

Hi Henrik

My OS is Debian and my Xymon ver. is 4.3.11. Also, the client is configured as "server-side".

I did run that ./xymoncmd xymond_client --test and got this:

2014-02-04 09:46:55 pcre compile '*machine_hostname1*' failed (offset 0): nothing to repeat
2014-02-04 09:46:55 pcre compile '*machine_hostname2*' failed (offset 0): nothing to repeat

Any thoughts?

I think you have a bad regular expression, probably in analysis.cfg.  You
have a hostname match string starting with an asterisk.
