CPU, Disk, Memory graphs not showing for newly added servers
list Sheel Shah
Hello, So we can monitor performance of a couple of newly transitioned servers, we installed xymon onto those two servers (Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008). We also added them to the hosts.cfg on the xymon server itself. While the 'conn' graph displays correctly, the other default columns (CPU, Disk, Memory, msgs, etc) will not show a graph and just show a dash (-) in that column. We verified port 1984 is opened between the servers and the xymon server itself, and all of our existing servers/graphs in xymon seem to be working fine. Does anyone know what could be causing this problem? Thank you, Sheel Shah Reader's Digest Association

Hello Gab, Yes, we installed the client onto both windows machines (BBWin). I don’t know if this could be part of the issue, but the BBWin folder in the Program Files folder is blue, which states that it is an encrypted or compressed NTFS file/folder. Thanks, Sheel

Sheel Check the ghosts report on the xymon server. It may be that the reports from those new servers are coming in with names or IP addresses other than what you expected. As a last resort, you could use tcpdump like this: tcpdump -n -i <incoming interface> port 1984 and <server IP> to see if the messages are even reaching the xymon server
