Poling interval at specific time.
list Jayanta Kundu
Hi All, I want to make poling interval at specific time. (i) In the KPI(client side custom script), I want to configure poling interval 15 minutes in business hours(from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM). Rest of the time KPI(client side custom script) should not execute. (ii) In the KPI(client side custom script), I want to execute script specific time (like 10:00 am, 5:00 pm, 9:00 pm etc.). Kindly help me for the same. With Thanks & Regards, Jayanta.

Since it is a custom script you want to run at specific times, use the "CRONDATE" setting in tasks.cfg to specify when it should run. Regards, Henrik

Hi Henrik, I am using Xymon 4.2.3. I didn't found any file named "tasks.cfg" file in client side. In $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/etc/ path following .cfg files are available: (i) clientlaunch.cfg (ii) hobbitclient.cfg (iii) localclient.cfg Could you please describe me in details how can i achieve this. With Thanks & Regards, Jayanta.

Then you'll have to run the script via your system 'cron' utility. Regards, Henrik

Hi All, I am using Xymon 4.2.3. Could anyone please let me know how can I write a sample script in Client side which should execute every 15 minutes on business hours(9:00 am to 6 pm) every day.

Hi Jayanta, Create a cron job as follows: */15 9-18 * * * $PATH_TO_BBCMD $PATH_TO_YOUR_SCRIPT Optionally if business hours were only Monday to Friday the last asterix would be replaced by 1-5. Phil

And at 18:30 every weekday that'll go purple... It would be better to add code to the top of the script to check the date/time and to send an automatic green (or perhaps blue) status whenever the date/time falls outside the times you want to watch. Ralph Mitchell

Oops, good point! I wrote that wondering how much it had to do with Xymon; perhaps had I considered it going purple I would have realised it was more to do with Xymon!

Hi,
To avoid the status goes from green/red to purple we can add "+2000"
like some big positive value after $BB $BBDISP "status+2000 ........
in the client side custom script.
Where can i get the "$PATH_TO_BBCMD".
In the "clientlaunch.cfg" file i configured as follows:
[Test]
ENVFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/etc/hobbitclient.cfg
CMD $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/script/TEST/TEST.sh
LOGFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/logs/TEST/TEST.log
INTERVAL 15m
In the cron job file named ("corn.txt") i configured as follows for
testing purpose:
20,22,24,26,28,30,32,34,36,38,40,42,44,46,48,50,52,54,56,58 20,21 * *
* /home/xymon/client/start /home/xymon/client/script/TEST/TEST.sh
Every 2 minutes .log file should update. But here it is not updating.
TEST.log file updating after every 15 minutes only.
▸
Kindly help me for the same.
With Thanks & Regards,
Jayanta.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 There are not enough stars in that crontab entry. There are 5 fields total and you've only used the one with the minutes so there should be four more. Check man 5 crontab -- I always have to check which field is which. Also, I don't know your platform or care to look it up, but there is normally a log associated with cron execution that probably would have alerted you to that problem. Might want to Google a bit.
