NAME
hobbit-ackinfo.cgi - Xymon CGI script to acknowledge alerts SYNOPSIS
hobbit-ackinfo.cgi DESCRIPTION
hobbit-ackinfo.cgi is invoked as a CGI script via the hobbit-ackinfo.sh CGI wrapper. hobbit-ackinfo.cgi is used to acknowledge an alert on the Xymon "Critical Systems" view, generated by the hobbit-nkview.cgi(1) utility. This allows the staff viewing the Critical Systems view to acknowledge alerts with a "Level 1" alert, thereby removing the alert from the Critical Systems view. Note that the Level 1 alert generated by the hobbit-ackinfo.cgi utility does NOT stop alerts from being sent. In a future version of Xymon (after Xymon 4.2), this utility will also be used for acknowledging alerts at other levels. OPTIONS
--level=NUMBER Sets the acknowledgment level. This is typically used to force a specific level of the acknowledgment, e.g. a level 1 acknowledge when called from the Critical Systems view. --validity=TIME Sets the validity of the acknowledgment. By default this is taken from the CGI parameters supplied by the user. --sender=STRING Logs STRING as the sender of the acknowledgment. By default, this is taken from the loginname of the webuser sending the acknowledg- ment. --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. ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
BBHOME Used to locate the template files for the generated web pages. QUERY_STRING Contains the parameters for the CGI script. SEE ALSO

NAME
hobbit-enadis.cgi - CGI program to enable/disable Xymon tests SYNOPSIS
hobbit-enadis.cgi (invoked via CGI from webserver) DESCRIPTION
hobbit-enadis.cgi is a CGI tool for disabling and enabling hosts and tests monitored by Xymon. You can disable monitoring of a single test, all tests for a host, or multiple hosts - immediately or at a future point in time. hobbit-enadis.cgi runs as a CGI program, invoked by your webserver. It is normally run via a wrapper shell-script in the secured CGI directory for Xymon. hobbit-enadis.cgi is the back-end script for the enable/disable form present on the "info" status-pages. It can also run in "stand-alone" mode, in which case it displays a web form allowing users to select what to enable or disable. OPTIONS
--no-cookies Normally, hobbit-enadis.cgi uses a cookie sent by the browser to initially filter the list of hosts presented. If this is not desired, you can turn off this behaviour by calling bb-ack.cgi with the --no-cookies option. This would normally be placed in the CGI_ENADIS_OPTS setting in hobbitcgi.cfg(5) --env=FILENAME Load the environment from FILENAME before executing the CGI. --area=NAME Load environment variables for a specific area. NB: if used, this option must appear before any --env=FILENAME option. FILES
$BBHOME/web/maint_{header,form,footer} HTML template header BUGS
When using alternate pagesets, hosts will only show up on the Enable/Disable page if this is accessed from the primary page in which they are defined. So if you have hosts on multiple pages, they will only be visible for disabling from their main page which is not what you would expect. SEE ALSO
