Hi Larry,
You are going to have to do some troubleshooting. As I said this NAME
directive does work for others, so there may be a bug with xymon or
there may be some odd issue with your installation. There is nothing
obviously wrong, so please, look into your log fies, turn up debugging,
try different things to see if you can work out what is happening.
Good luck and let us know how you went.
cheers, Phil

FYI: I just upgraded to 4.3.3, and the problem still exists.

I removed the NAME: directive from one of the affected hosts, and
the
trends graphing worked fine after that. Of course, then I had a
screwed up
name showing up on the main page.
Thanks,

Well, when you can, why don't you try removing the directive. As I
said,
we don't have a problem and we have about 1/3 of our monitored
hosts
with using NAME.

No the graph doesn't display, you just get a page saying "file not
found" or
something along those lines (I'm not at place where I can check
right
now).
As far as I know it doesn't matter where the NAME directive is on
the
line.
I suspect that if you removed the name directive then everything
would
work
OK.
Thanks,

I believe I have found a bug when you generate trending graphs
for
custom
periods. It seems that the display name is used in the command
rather
than
the "true" name. For instance, if you have a hosts.cfg entry
like
this:
1.2.3.4 fully.qualified.domain.name # yadda yadda yadda
NAME:display_name
The trends page uses "display_name" when you ask it to
generate
custom
length graphs. You can hack the URL and replace the display
name
with
the
real name (fully.qualified.display.name above) and everything
works
fine.
Thanks,
Larry Barber
So you are saying the graph doesn't display? We use this feature
a lot
and don't have a problem seeing the graphs. If you remove the
NAME
entry, does it work? Does the problem only happen when the NAME
thing
is
at the end of the line?
