xymondboard & "client data" ?
list Jon Dustin
Greetings - I've been searching for a way to use Xymon to retrieve details from the "client data" report for many hosts. XYMONDBOARD looks like it is *close*, but I cannot find the exact syntax required. I'm running v4.3.7 (old, I know). If I click on the "client data available" for a host, I want to retrieve some of the stanzas in that report (client, osversion). But for many hosts, via a CLI. Thanks for any assistance you can pass along. -- Jon Dustin - Network Specialist University of Southern Maine Portland, ME XXX-XXX-XXXX

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, you could also go to ~xymon/data/hostdata and there you'll find a directory for every host that sends this data and in every directory you'll find the actual client data among a lot of old ones. Although I am aware that it might be somewhat easier with builtin funcionality. But maybe for a first try until someone comes up with a much better idea ;-) Just my 2 cents Torsten

Hi Jon, have a look at `clientlog HOSTNAME` instead of `xymondboard`, that fetches data you get by clicking on `client data available` on the web interface. It’s documented in `xymon(1)`. It’s also possible to extract a specific section from the clientlog :) Combined with `xymondboard` and a for-loop you should get what you need. All the best Thomas
