I have a standard pre & post backup execution script which runs from the
backup software and sets the backup status in a file on the client
server. In addition, an external script which runs periodically
throughout the day to check that status. The trick is making sure you
either execute the external script often enough to keep purple
conditions ( default 30 minutes without a update) from occurring or set
the expiration on the status long enough to stay until the next backup
runs.

Subject: [Xymon] Backup Application
▸ quoted from Nikesh Maharaj
Hi All,
Please advise if there is some sort of plugin/script that will send a
message from the client when my backup application sends me an
successful/unsuccessfule email after my backups and update the Xymon
page. Im currently using Attix 5 as my backup application.
Is this possible ?
Thanks
