hobbit-confreport.cgi

HOBBIT-CONFREPORT.CGI(1)				      General Commands Manual					  HOBBIT-CONFREPORT.CGI(1)

NAME

       hobbit-confreport.cgi - Xymon Configuration report

SYNOPSIS

       hobbit-confreport.cgi

DESCRIPTION

       hobbit-confreport.cgi is invoked as a CGI script via the hobbit-confreport.sh CGI wrapper.

       hobbit-confreport.cgi  provides	a  plain  HTML	(Web)  report of the Xymon configuration for a group of hosts; which hosts are included is
       determined by the hosts available on the webpage from where the CGI script is invoked.

       The configuration report include the hostnames, a list of the statuses monitored for each host, and if applicable  any  configuration  set-
       tings affecting these. Alerts that may be triggered by status changes are also included.

       The  report  is	plain  HTML  without any images included, and therefore suitable for inclusion into e-mails or other documents that may be
       accessed outside the Xymon system.

OPTIONS

       --critical
	      Report only on the statuses that are configured to show up on the Critical Systems view.

       --old-nk-config
	      Use the deprecated NK tag in bb-hosts to determine if tests appear on the Critical Systems view.

       --env=FILENAME
	      Loads the environment defined in FILENAME before executing the CGI script.

       --area=NAME
	      Load environment variables for a specific area. NB: if used, this option must appear before any --env=FILENAME option.

       --debug
	      Enables debugging output.

BUGS

       Client-side configuration done in the hobbit-clients.cfg(5) is not currently reflected in the report.

       Critical Systems view configuration is not reflected in the report.
