Two hosts, monitor a service that should be running on only one of them
list Shawn Heisey
I have a pair of machines running BBWin in central mode. Is there any way in analysis.cfg to indicate that a particular service exists on both of them but should only be running on one of them? If that service is running on both servers or neither server, I want to see a red alarm. Thanks, Shawn

I think you can do this using a combo test. Look at the man page for combo.cfg for instructions. J

Thanks for suggesting this, I just saw this message 10 seconds after deciding I needed to setup combo tests. So, I've got two hosts with results in a column lvs (tests linux LVM snapshots to warn/alert if any are greater that 50%/80% full, and also red if no snapshot exists). san1.domain.com.lvs which is currently red san2.domain.com.lvs which is currently green bbcombotest.cfg has: float-san.domain.com.lvs = san1.domain.com.lvs || san2.domain.com.lvs Running bbcombotest --debug manually produces this: 2013-09-18 16:20:05 Symbolic 'san1.domain.com.lvs||san2.domain.com.lvs' converted to '1||1' On the web page I see a green status for float-san.domain.lvs (which is actually correct). The problem is on the page, it shows san1 as green and san2 as clear, but it should show san1 red and san2 green. I'm running xymon "4.3.0~beta2.dfsg-9.1" from debian package. Is this something which was fixed in a more recent version, or am I just doing something wrong? Thanks, Adam -- Adam Goryachev Website Managers www.websitemanagers.com.au

From memory, the combo tests were buggy in some versions, so I'd suggest upgrading and see if it helps. J On 18 September 2013 16:30, Adam Goryachev <
