Devices do not appear to be updating

Morning

Firstly - just to pre-warn everyone, I'm pretty new to Xymon (and to
mailing lists) - although so far it has been pretty easy to setup.

I'm slowly adding some windows servers. The last device I added last night
doesn't seem to be adding any checks apart from the standard "conn", "info"
and "trends"

[image: Inline images 1]

My hosts.cfg file is as follows:

x.x.x.x    Log-Svr                 # NOCOLUMNS:files
y.y.y.y    ACS-Svr                 # NOCOLUMNS:files

My analysis.cfg file is as follows:

        DISK C 80 90
        DISK E 80 90
        MEMPHYS 75 101

Looking through all of the log files (/var/log/xymon/) I can't seem to find
anything that would give me a clue about why this device isn't updating

Thanks everyone

Your Xymon server isn't receiving any client messages from ACS-Svr.  Is
Log-Svr also a Windows server?  If so, check that the client is configured
the same way.  Either way, check that your Xymon client (eg BBWin) is
running and is not producing errors.

Hi Jeremy,

Yes - Log-SVR is also a windows server. I've checked the BBWin.cfg files on
both and both are the same

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<bbwin>
<setting name="bbdisplay" value="z.z.z.z" />
 <!-- bbwin mode local or central -->
<setting name="mode" value="central" />
<setting name="configclass" value="win32" />
 <setting name="autoreload" value="true" />
<setting name="timer" value="5m" />
<load name="cpu" value="cpu.dll"/>
<load name="disk" value="disk.dll"/>
<load name="externals" value="externals.dll"/>

<setting name="logpath" value="..\logs\BBWin.log"/>
<!--  If true, the agent will report reporting failures as warning events
-->
<setting name="logreportfailure" value="false" />
</bbwin>
</configuration>

I've restarted the Big Brother Xymon service on the ACS-Svr and in the log
file I get

2013/12/18 11:09:21 [INFO]: bbwin is stopped.
2013/12/18 11:09:22 [INFO]: [filesystem]: failed to load logfetch status
C:\Program Files\BBWin\tmp\logfetch.status : The system cannot find the
file specified.
2013/12/18 11:09:22 [INFO]: bbwin is started - using central configuration

I thought I'd restart the service on the Log-Svr and I get the same
messages.....

Thanks

Is BBWin creating files in the bbwin\tmp folder? Have you checked 
connectivity to the Xymon server:

telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 1984

You shouldn't need to unless %COMPUTERNAME% is not the same as your entry in hosts.cfg. Is it appearing in your Ghost Clients report?

I've restarted the Big Brother Xymon service on the ACS-Svr and in the log file I get

2013/12/18 11:09:21 [INFO]: bbwin is stopped.
2013/12/18 11:09:22 [INFO]: [filesystem]: failed to load logfetch status C:\Program Files\BBWin\tmp\logfetch.status : The system cannot find the file specified.
2013/12/18 11:09:22 [INFO]: bbwin is started - using central configuration

I thought I'd restart the service on the Log-Svr and I get the same messages.....

Thanks

Firstly - just to pre-warn everyone, I'm pretty new to Xymon (and to mailing lists) - although so far it has been pretty easy to setup.

I'm slowly adding some windows servers. The last device I added last night doesn't seem to be adding any checks apart from the standard "conn", "info" and "trends"

My hosts.cfg file is as follows:

x.x.x.x Log-Svr # NOCOLUMNS:files
y.y.y.y ACS-Svr # NOCOLUMNS:files

My analysis.cfg file is as follows:

HOST=Log-Svr
 DISK C 80 90

 MEMPHYS 75 101
 MEMSWAP 75 85

Looking through all of the log files (/var/log/xymon/) I can't seem to find anything that would give me a clue about why this device isn't updating

Thanks everyone

Is BBWin creating files in the bbwin\tmp folder? Have you checked
connectivity to the Xymon server:

telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 1984

Hi Jeremy,

Yes - Log-SVR is also a windows server. I've checked the BBWin.cfg files
