Hi Gents,

Need a bit of help on something.
In my hosts.cfg on fresh installed xymon server (v  4.3.10) I have this:

group <H4>Websites</H4>
group-compress <H5>Main</H5>
127.0.0.1       domain_1.com                 # noconn http://www.domain_1.com
127.0.0.2       domain_2.com                        # noconn https://www.domain_2.com

group-compress <H5>Redmine</H5>
127.0.0.3       dev.managinglife.com            # noconn                https://dev.domain_1.com/redmine/

group-compress <H5>Jenkins</H5>
127.0.0.4       dev.domain_1.com            # noconn http://dev.domain_1.com/jenkins/
127.0.0.4       preprod.domain_2.com        # noconn http://preprod.domain_2.com/jenkins/
127.0.0.6       prod.domain_2.com           # noconn http://prod.domain_2.com/jenkins/

Although for the first 2 websites all looks good, for the ones which follow below, I get the "conn" column which shows "red" (that's because those hosts don't respond to ping, being default ec2 instances).
Any idea how can I remove the "conn" column/check ?

Thanks!

You probably just need to drop those tests.

$ ./xymon xymonhostname 'drop domain_1.com conn'    # from $XYMONHOME/bin
directory

Thanks,

To me, purple would indicate a drop is needed. I think something else is wrong here.

I’ve had the same experience. You need to do the drop.

Xymon had a test to run,  and it was red. You noticed that, and so put the noconn in. Now Xymon isn’t running that test, it’s not expecting that test.  So I doesn’t update that test (ie go purple).
