Hi, In this script, it says: # In the config file, we are expecting things like these: # # log:/path/to/file:maxsize # ignore MARK # trigger stuff # linecount:/path/to/file # label1:regex1 # label2:regex2 I'm trying to set the thresholds for green, yellow, and red and I don't know how using a client-less script. Which config file and where? usaims

Are you trying to use "log:" or "linecount:"? For what attributes are you trying to set thresholds? Perhaps you could share your configuration? To be honest, xymon-rclient is primarily to collect the basic instrumentation available for CPU, memory, disk usage and the like, that would otherwise be collected by the Xymon client installed on the box, if it were possible to do so. Other features, like those that are configured in client-local.cfg, are less likely to be fully support. Cheers Jeremy

The script is doing exactly what it is suppose to do, bringing that data back to the DISPLAY server and outputting it. I'd like to set the disk usage to report yellow at 99 and red at 100, for now. I'm not using a a config file. Thank you.

Disk usage thresholds are configured on the Xymon server. This is is the same whether you're using xymon-rclient or a Xymon client to collect the system data.
Once you have xymon-rclient collecting disk data (so you can see disk graphs) then you can define the thresholds you want to alert on within the analysis.cfg file. The default thresholds are 90% and 95%. Use the "DISK" parameter to change from the default. For example:
HOST=myhost.example.com DISK * 99 100
