Multiple Xymon Servers

We've got two xymon servers running 4.3.0-0.20090209. The clients are mostly hobbit 4.2.0. The goal was for the servers to run in parallel and stay in sync. I don't know if I did something wrong, but we're having a problem with the trend graphs and rrd. The rrd-status.log is full of messages like:

2009-05-19 12:26:02 RRD error updating /var/opt/hobbit/rrd/myhost.mydomain/la.rrd from 10.15.50.111: illegal attempt to update using time 1242750061 when last update time is 1242750061 (minimum one second step)

Each client has
BBDISP="0.0.0.0"
BBDISPLAYS="10.15.50.10 10.15.50.12"
in it's config so that it's sending data to both servers.

Both servers have the same in their hobbitserver.cfg file.

Doing this made sense to me so that if one server went down, it would still be getting client data. Also, we can disable/enable things on one server and the other show the appropriate status. Only one server is running bbpage, however.

Did I configure things incorrectly for multiple servers or is there a deeper problem?

Thanks,
Ken

Hi,

we had a similar setup, but dropped it in favor of a single server,
basically because it was too hard to keep the list of disabled (blue)
services in sync. (The server is an ESX VM so unlikely to die anyway.)
2009-05-19 12:26:02 RRD error updating  /var/opt/hobbit/rrd/myhost.mydomain/la.rrd from 10.15.50.111: illegal  attempt to update using time 1242750061 when last update time is  1242750061 (minimum one second step)
Your problem is that you have two hobbitd_client processes running.
Both servers receive "client" reports and will decompile them into
separate disk/vm/... tests. The results are then also sent to the
other server.

You could try either to disable the hobbitd_client module on one
server, or remove the other server in each server's BBDISPLAYS
setting. Both approaches have their drawbacks, though.

I currently have 2 Xymon servers that I look after on 2 separate sites, however those sites will shortly have data links between them. I'd like to be able to show the main page of my secondary server on my main server (I know I can use summary but that doesn't allow me to drill down). Is there any way to be able to add the main page of my secondary server as a sub page on my primary server and still have full drill down capability for alerts?

I just completed something similar.  We have 5 separate sites and direct links between only 2 of the sites.

We use summary to put the status on the main Xymon server.  Behind that is a set of reverse proxy rules for apache that direct traffic for those summary icons through the main Xymon website.  For the servers that do not have a direct link I have setup OpenVPN.

As long as each site has a separate URL (site1.here.com/location1, site2.here.com/location2 as opposed to site1.here.com/Xymon & site2.here.com/Xymon) I can use a single FQDN URL to access all of the sites (allsites.here.com/location1, allsites.here.com/location2, etc).

Actually, I'm an idiot. If you put the right URL in the summary statement in hosts.cfg it works beautifully. (URL of the sending server not the receiving).

You would have to add the servers you want from the secondary site to the primary and set the secondary up as a proxy. Proxying to itself and to the primary.

Subject: [Xymon] Multiple Xymon servers

I currently have 2 Xymon servers that I look after on 2 separate sites, however those sites will shortly have data links between them. I'd like to be able to show the main page of my secondary server on my main server (I know I can use summary but that doesn't allow me to drill down). Is there any way to be able to add the main page of my secondary server as a sub page on my primary server and still have full drill down capability for alerts?
