Disabling modules
list Dudi Goldenberg
Hello list, Just install Xymon on a Debian test machine. Where is the proper place to decide what tests are performed on every client? I tried: 1.2.3.4 1.2.3.4 # -apt Didn’t work. apt.conf and aptdiff.conf are set to [disabled] – however, I still have apt labeled purple. What is the right way to remove apt from the main status screen? Regards, Dudi Goldenberg CTO Kolcore Ltd. T: 07-32203220 F: 07-32203221/09-7743796 M: 05-2430-4000

Purple is an expired test. Whatever way you disabled apt, you did it after the server already received some status info. It appears your disabling was successful as the info is now stale. Now you can drop the stale data (see the xymon command, look for drop).

If it’s purple then you did remove it. It’s no longer testing. To get rid of it from the display , and history, you need to drop it. Xymon localhost “drop 1.2.3.4 apt” This is on the server. Obviously, substitute the hostname for the 1.2.3.4.
