Master slave configuration
list Tom Diehl
Hi, I have 2 xymon servers that watch the same networks and servers from 2 geographically diverse locations. The idea is that if one of the servers looses connectivity I will get notified from the other system. This seems to almost work OK, except both servers send ALL of the client data they have to the other server. If I click on the xymond icon I see things under Multi-source statuses like system1:smtp reported by 172.25.1.2 and 192.168.0.2. Can someone tell me how to configure the xymon servers to only send client data about themselves to the other server? I would like each server to run and report only its own test results. Is this documented somewhere? My Google foo has not worked very well wrt this question. Regards, -- Tom Diehl user-6203f2c4f8ec@xymon.invalid Spamtrap address user-0545b31a2bcf@xymon.invalid

Each Xymon server needs to have XYMSERVERS set to only its own IP address, rather than both IP addresses, for the server config (xymonserver.cfg). Be sure that it has both IP addresses defined in the client config (xymonclient.cfg) so that each Xymon server can monitor the state of the other Xymon server.

Hi Jeremy, Turns out that the rpm I got from terabithia, has the following in the xymonservers.cfg file: XYMSERVERS="$XYMONSERVERIP $XYMONSERVERS" If I change it to XYMSERVERS="$XYMONSERVERIP" that resolves the problem. Thanks for the advice.
