Dear All,

as mentioned in the topic: Is it possible to trigger a server side 
monitoring cycle (for external tests like ping), without having to 
restart the whole daemon?

Thank you!

Ping tests are performed by xymonnet. You could run the xymonnet command
manually, as it appears in tasks.cfg, perhaps also using xymoncmd.

This is almost the same thing as what the xymonnet-again.sh script does.

Ping was meant as an example. How can I trigger DNS, http, msgs?

xymonnet does network based tests, so DNS, http, ssh, smtp, etc are covered. msgs, cpu, disk, memory and so on are tests done by the xymon client, not the server. As far as I know nothing on the server affects the running of these tests on the clients (other than centralised configuration settings). You would need to manually restart each client to force an immediate refresh.
