trimhistory command
list Matt Pannucci
Hello I'm attempting to use the trimhistory command to free up some space on our xymon server. I can get a "man trimhistory" to work and show me all of the available options, but when I run anything with the trimhistory command I get the error of command not found. Is there a trick to this? Or does it sound like something is just setup wrong in our environment? Thanks! -- This information is intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.

Hi Matt,
Depending on the installation, it may require running within the xymon
environment, or be in a xymon-specific path
Can you try "xymoncmd trimhistory" or xymoncmd
--env=/path/to/xymonserver.cfg trimhistory?
HTH,

On my RPM installed system, it's at /usr/libexec/xymon/trimhistory. On a system where I compiled from source, it's at <$XYMONPATH>/server/bin/trimhistory. On any Linux system, you can run "updatedb" followed by "locate trimhistory".
