Hi

I am having a look at the possibility of changing the REFRESH for the webpages, or to disable it!!! as 60 seconds for some webpages it is too little when you got a big bunch of graphs, but changing and hard-coding the template will impact on all the other pages as well.
I also could not find the actual variable and I did not know where to change it but hard-coding.. (Unless this has been compiled in the cgi files..)

Any thoughts around this at all?

Many thanks for all your help.

Gonzalo.

The refresh interval is set in the templates in the $XYMONHOME/web
directory:

 <META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="60">

Since there are templates (often just symlinks) for just about every page
type you could change (or remove) the refresh interval base on page type.

Thanks,
Larry Barber

Hi Larry

Yes, I was having a look at that, but that affects all the pages, as you said it is a template so that is then something I should about as the change will affect to every single setup...

many thanks

I'm not sure if it's documented, but you can create special headers for
specific pages. xymongen checks in sequence, working its way back up a
page/subpage hierarchy even, before using the 'web/stdnormal_header'.

For a subpage of foo/bar/meh:

open("/usr/share/xymon/server/web/foo_bar_meh_header", O_RDONLY) = -1
ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/usr/share/xymon/server/web/foo_bar_header", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT
(No such file or directory)
open("/usr/share/xymon/server/web/foo_header", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
open("/usr/share/xymon/server/web/stdnormal_header", O_RDONLY) = 4
