Hello;

I am running two versions of Xymon, 4.3.0-0.beta2 & 4.2.2. The newer, albeit "beta" version, shows fewer columns on its display versus the 4.2.2 version.  The columns not shown under 4.3.0-0.beta2 are:

bbd
conn
http
ssh
svcs

Must I enable these somewhere?  I am pretty certain that my bb-hosts file is the same on the new server as it is on the older one.

Thank you,

The column "conn" should be on every host with a ping test.  What is your
bb-hosts?

The column "bbd" should be on the first entry - that's the process that gets
everything rolling.  If this isn't running then you have a problem, so see
if it's running.

I do not have "bbd" running, is this started under hobbit-client or hobbit-server? Does this run as a daemon, or periodically?

Thanks!

It runs on the hobbit/Xymon server and is the main place that clients
connect to the server to send status information to the server.  As far
as http and ssh is concerned, both of these require tags in the bb-hosts
file to start testing and produce a column.

Can anyone else running 4.3.0-0.beta2 please confirm that they are not having the same issues as I?

By the way, on my "info" icon for my xymon server, I see:

Other tags:bbd ssh 

The icons however do not appear anywhere...

One more thing, my setup is designed to have two Xymon servers.  I recall bbd and conn being disabled on the standby server, but I've not configured standby/active as of yet.
