analysis.cfg config issues
list Rolf Brusletto
I *thought* I'd used this type of setup in the past, but it doesn't seem to be working in the current setup as follows:
HOST=somehost
LOAD 4.0 6.0 TIME=W:0730:1630
MEMACT 50 60 TIME=W:0730:1630
LOAD 10.0 12.0
MEMACT 80 90
DEFAULT
# These are the built-in defaults.
UP 20m
LOAD 1.0 2.0
MEMACT 90 97
Currently, I'm getting warning(yellow) alerts for what seems to be anything over a load of 5, which in the documentation seems like the default, when nothing is specified. Clearly the load is defined in the default(which IS at the end of the analysis.cfg). We expect the load to be lower than 4 during week work hours, and higher in the evening/night due to a large amount of load processing. Is there something simple I'm missing here, or is it simply the way the times are configured?

To me, the config looks like it should work. Perhaps you could test what's going on with "xymond_client --test --debug". See "man xymond_client" for details. Also note that the default levels for LOAD are 5 and 10, according to the man page for analysis.cfg. So the behaviour is also consistent with the host matching nothing including the DEFAULT. Is it possible that the analysis.cfg file is not readable by the xymon user? J On Wed, Jun 13, 2012 at 4:56 AM, Rolf Brusletto

Is this a Windows client? If so, it may be using local settings. I had a similar problem and had to delete the defaults in the bbwin.cfg file. cheers, Phil
