Hi all,

 
I am monitoring 50 servers on xymon out of which 20 are database servers.
Therefore I want to separate the application servers with database server. I
want to add a new header to separate the servers into two groups. 

 
Can someone help how I can achieve that?

 
Regards,

Sailesh

Visually?  Different tests?  Different alerts?

We use the following which adds a header above each set of hosts on the
labhosts page...

Hi All,

 
Thanks for the help. 

 
I have another requirement is that I need to monitor which ports is open on my servers. But on xymon, I have the ‘ports header’ which shows ports NOT OK. How if I want to monitor, https, telnet, ftp, ftps,ssh, rlogin etc.

 
Where do I need to put the configurations.

 
Regards,

Sailesh

So are you wanting to monitor each port as a separate service or all on the
ports page?

Ports uses the `netstat` command to determine what ports are in use on the
system, when the client data is sent to Xymon this is then controlled by
the analysis.cfg (hobbit-clients.cfg) to determine which ports to look for
and how many there should be (set to 0 so that it will alert if a port
becomes active - e.g. we have this set for telnet as none of our servers
should have telnet enabled).

Or you can get the Xymon server to probe the client to check from a remote
perspective if the ports/service are up and running (check the
hosts.cfg/bb-hosts man page for a list of all of the built in tests you can
use, or write your own extensions).

Use the group keyword.

And please look at the man pages, or even read the comments in the files. Both questions you have put to the list this morning are very basic Xymon things.
