RE: [Bigsister-general] Problem with Remote host


Hi there --

I did a check of the uxmon-net file on the bs display machine and there is no
entry for the remote machine.
This is what it looks like on the display box:

# Agent Configuration File
# The Big Sister Server expects communication
# every 10 minutes or server is considered down
#-----------------------------------------------------
# Set the default SNMP community to "public", the
#
# Set default frequency to 5 minutes for "ALL" checks
# KEYWORD       Default settings                        Apply To TEST
#-------------  ---------------------------             -----------------
DEFAULT		community=public frequency=5 perf=5	ALL
DEFAULT		version=1 proto=udp			rpc
DEFAULT		proto=udp				ping


# Information about defined systems to monitor using DESCR command.
#
# KEYWORD       SYSTEM FEATURES                         Apply To HOST
#---------      --------------------------              ------------
DESCR		features=unix,linux 				localhost
DESCR		features=unix,sysv,solaris			someotherhost


# Run the following tests.
# Note: host1(host2) is reported under host2
# Note: host can be an IP address
# Report Host   Health Test List
#------------   -----------------------------------
localhost	load memory network cpuload
localhost	disk
localhost	syslog
localhost	proc=inetd procs    proc=sshd procs     
localhost	users

# EDIT THIS, replace localhost by the name or IP address of your Big Sister
server
#
# BigSis Server bsdisplay /options
#------------   -----------------------------------
localhost	bsdisplay

# include file for specific hosts, do not name it uxmon-net.* as a new 
# process is started for every file matching that pattern
include include_checks.$HOST


Here is a copy of the uxmon-net file from the remote machine:

# Agent Configuration File
# The Big Sister Server expects communication
# every 10 minutes or server is considered down
#-----------------------------------------------------
# Set the default SNMP community to "public", the
#
# Set default frequency to 5 minutes for "ALL" checks
# KEYWORD       Default settings                        Apply To TEST
#-------------  ---------------------------             -----------------
DEFAULT		community=public frequency=5 perf=5	ALL
DEFAULT		version=1 proto=udp			rpc
DEFAULT		proto=udp				ping


# Information about defined systems to monitor using DESCR command.
# You *must* DESCRIBE your system, here.
#
# KEYWORD       SYSTEM FEATURES                         Apply To HOST
#---------      --------------------------              ------------
DESCR		features=unix,sysv,hpux			localhost
# DESCR		features=unix,sysv,solaris		someotherhost

# Run the following tests.
# Note: host1(host2) is reported under host2
# Note: host can be an IP address
# Report Host   Health Test List
#------------   -----------------------------------
localhost	load diskload memory
localhost	fs=all(6%-10%),all-ufs(6%-10%),all-ext2(6%-10%) disk
localhost	syslog dumpdates
localhost	procs=init(1-1),sendmail(1-20) procs 
localhost	eventlog cpuload
localhost	network
localhost	users

# EDIT THIS, replace localhost by the name or IP address of your Big Sister
server
#
# BigSis Server bsdisplay /options
#------------   -----------------------------------
192.168.129.50	bsdisplay

# include file for specific hosts, do not name it uxmon-net.* as a new
# process is started for every file matching that pattern
include include_checks.$HOST

The above configuration settings have resulted in no report being received from
the remote host. The second uxmon-net
file that was on the display machine has been removed so as of now there exists
only one such file on the display box
and another one on the target box.

Hi,

do you have the entry for the remote machine in the uxmon-net of your bs display
machine? you shouldnt, if you do...
