XyMon client for Windows - XyWin.Net
list Fred
Hi, I am starting to develop a new client for Windows systems. While BBwin is a very solid product, but my wishlist is LARGE and my knowledge of C++ and Windows DLL development is very limited. However, I am VERY comfortable with the .NET framework. So, to save (my) time, I am writing a "from the ground up" new XyMon client for Windows. Written in C# on .NET v2.0 framework. (V2.0 is standard Win 2003 and up.) It's still in the early design stages, but the XyWin.Net core framework is firming up quickly. The core framework will make building separate "plug-ins" very easy. I welcome all input (and help). It is at SourceForge. Blog: http://xywinnet.sourceforge.net Project: http://sourceforge.net/projects/xywinnet Thanks. Fred LaForest user-384032178df2@xymon.invalid

Hi Rich,
No. BBwin does everything it says it can do.
It is just that I want it to do a lot more. To name a few items.
* Instead of initiating a connection to the XyMon server to deliver
its messages, I want it to also wait for XyMon to initiate a
connection and then accept the Windows client messages. This is
required with clients in a company DMZ.
* Support SSL encryption of client messages to XyMon
* Become a "proxy" to accept BBwin client messages from nearby
clients and then forward them to the XyMon server (either
immediately or wait for XyMon connection)
* Support sending to different combinations of servers
* Support alternate message formats (Standard BB text, XML, web
services, etc)
* etc
Take a look at my "about" page at the http://sourceforge.net/apps/wordpress/xywinnet/about-xywin-net/
Thanks.
Fred

Josh, XyWin.Net is now a big collection of a lot of code pieces. I am getting closer to having something to install, but not yet. I would like to have an installable alpha within the month. The code is out there and is up on SVN. I am new at SVN so I haven't set up any branches or trunk yet. I need to do that REAL soon. Thanks. Fred

Fred, Congrats on taking up this challenge!!! Will the new app still allow non-.net apps to place files within the tmp folder to be sent to the xymon server? Also will you have the same functionality as bbwincmd.exe? Bbwin has a VERY low footprint on the server.. Do you expect xywin.net to be as small? Good luck!!

Sounds like an excellent idea. I've hacked on BBWin code and it has some quite serious bugs and badly written code - especially in central configuration mode (all due respect - it does the job superbly most of the time). Using C# is definitely the right way to go with modern versions of Windows as it makes it a lot easier to link into the OS (e.g. CIM).

Hi There We have a plug in for bbwin that we created called SQLMon. It allows you to configure sql scripts to run for testing anything on MSSQL. I use it to monitor my servers. We want to release it as open source. Maybe you would like the code to incorporate into your system. It is written in C#. With this plug-in we monitor replication status, performance counter, sql transactions per second and so. If you can write a query and define green, yellow or red status in a simple xml file you can monitor it with this. While being used for bbwin it can help you lay out the foundation for SQL specific tests. Would you be interested? Regards neil

Hi There
We have a plug in for bbwin that we created called SQLMon. It allows you
to configure sql scripts to run for testing anything on MSSQL. I use it
to monitor my servers. We want to release it as open source. Maybe you
would like the code to incorporate into your system. It is written in
C#. With this plug-in we monitor replication status, performance
counter, sql transactions per second and so. If you can write a query
and define green, yellow or red status in a simple xml file you can
monitor it with this. While being used for bbwin it can help you lay out
the foundation for SQL specific tests.
Would you be interested?
Regards
neil

Hi Neil, Very interested. Take a look at the code section under the JBoss directory in the XyWin.Net project. The example, JBossJvmStats inherits from the XyWinModule class. The main method, ModuleRun, is called by XyWin control. The XyWinTask reference passed to the module has a method which you use to pass any status messages for delivery to the server. The plugin just create messages and leave it to XyWin main to worry about formatting and delivery. The ConsoleTest directory has a simple minded example I use for testing. We should probably take this conversation offline or to the maillist I setup for XyWin.Net discussions since this is not directly XyMon development related. Thanks. Fred
