NAME

       drawvalmap - Generate a graphical output of validation status values
		    encountered by the validator library.

SYNOPSIS

       drawvalmap <logfile>

       drawvalmap

DESCRIPTION

       drawvalmap is a simple utility that can be used to display the validator status values in a graphical format.  The input to this script is
       a set of log messages that can be read either from file or from a socket.  The output is an image file containing an image of the various
       validator authentication chain status values.

       drawvalmap reads data from STDIN if the logfile and the socket option are both unspecified.  If the -f option is given, the output image
       file is embedded in an HTML file with the given name.  The HTML file auto-refreshes according to the refresh time supplied by the -r
       option, allowing changes to the validator graph to be constantly tracked.

       The typical usage of this script is in the following way:

	   # drawvalmap <logfile>

       It would not be uncommon to use this script for troubleshooting purposes, in which case output generated by a driver program would be
       "piped" to this script in the manner shown below.

	   # dt-validate -o6:stdout secure.example.com. | drawvalmap -f val_log_map.html

       In each case the script generates the results in a val_log_map.png file.  In the second case, an HTML file with the name val_log_map.html
       is also generated.

OPTIONS

       -a IP-address
	   This changes the address to which drawvalmap binds itself to the specified value. This option takes effect only if the -s option is
	   also specified.

       -f file.ext
	   This creates an image of the type determined by the file extension

       -g xxxx (deprecated)
	   Use -f instead.

       -h file.html
	   This creates an HTML file with the given name, which contains the image of the validation map.

       -i ignore_pattern_string
	   This causes drawvalmap to ignore log records that match the given ignore pattern.

       -l log_event1,log_event2
	   This causes drawvalmap to enable display of events for the given list of log types. The following log event types are defined with
	   their default enabled status indicated in parenthesis: SUCCESS(1), BOGUS(1), DATA_MISSING(1), ERROR(1), and IGNORED(0).

       -m match_pattern_string
	   This causes drawvalmap to include only log records that match the given pattern.  If a given log record matches a pattern given by the
	   -m option and also matches the pattern given by the -i option the effective result is that of ignoring the record.

       -p port
	   This changes the port to which drawvalmap binds itself to the specified value. This option takes effect only if the -s option is also
	   specified.

       -r refresh-period
	   This changes the refresh period in the HTML file to the given value. The default is 5 seconds.

       -s  This changes the mode of operation to read input from a socket.  The default address and port to which drawvalmap binds are
	   127.0.0.1:1053.

NAME

       hobbitsvc.cgi - CGI program to view Xymon status logs

SYNOPSIS

       hobbitsvc.cgi [--hobbitd|--historical] [--history={top|bottom}]

DESCRIPTION

       hobbitsvc.cgi is a CGI program to present a Xymon status log in HTML form (ie, as a web page). It can be used both for the logs showing the
       current status, and for historical logs from the "histlogs" directory. It is normally invoked as a CGI program, and therefore receives most
       of the input parameters via the CGI QUERY_STRING environment variable.

       Unless the "--historical" option is present, the current status log is used. This assumes a QUERY_STRING environment variable of the form
	  HOSTSVC=hostname.servicename
       where  "hostname"  is  the  name  of the host with commas instead of dots, and "servicename" is the name of the service (the column name in
       Xymon).	Such links are automatically generated by the bbgen(1) tool when the environment contains "BBLOGSTATUS=dynamic".

       With the "--historical" option present, a historical logfile is used. This assumes a QUERY_STRING environment variable of the form
	  HOST=hostname&SERVICE=servicename&TIMEBUF=timestamp
       where "hostname" is the name of the host with commas instead of dots, "servicename" is the name of the service, and "timestamp" is the time
       of the log. This is automatically generated by the bb-hist.cgi(1) tool.

OPTIONS

       --hobbitd
	      Retrieve	the  current status log from hobbitd(1) rather than from the logfile. This is for use with the Xymon daemon from the Xymon
	      monitor version 4.

       --historical
	      Use a historical logfile instead of the current logfile.

       --history={top|bottom|none}
	      When showing the current logfile, provide a "HISTORY" button at the top or the bottom of the webpage, or not at all. The default	is
	      to put the HISTORY button at the bottom of the page.

       --env=FILENAME
	      Load the environment from FILENAME before executing the CGI.

       --templates=DIRECTORY
	      Where to look for the HTML header- and footer-templates used when generating the webpages. Default: $BBHOME/web/

       --no-svcid
	      Do  not  include	the  HTML  tags  to identify the hostname/service on the generated web page. Useful is this already happens in the
	      hostsvc_header template file, for instance.

       --multigraphs=TEST1[,TEST2]
	      This causes hobbitsvc.cgi to generate links to service graphs that are split up into multiple images, with  at  most  5  graphs  per
	      image. This option only works in Xymon mode. If not specified, only the "disk" status is split up this way.

       --no-disable
	      By default, the info-column page includes a form allowing users to disable and re-enable tests. If your setup uses the default sepa-
	      ration of administration tools into a separate, password- protected area, then use of the  disable-  and	enable-functions  requires
	      access to the administration tools. If you prefer to do this only via the dedicated administration page, this option will remove the
	      disable-function from the info page.

       --no-jsvalidation
	      The disable-function on the info-column page by default uses JavaScript to validate the form before  submitting  the  input  to  the
	      Xymon server. However, some browsers cannot handle the Javascript code correctly so the form does not work. This option disables the
	      use of Javascript for form-validation, allowing these browsers to use the disable-function.

FILES

       $BBHOME/web/hostsvc_header
	      HTML template header

       $BBHOME/web/hostsvc_footer
	      HTML template footer

ENVIRONMENT

       NONHISTS=info,trends,graphs
	      A comma-separated list of services that does not have meaningful history, e.g. the "info" and "trends" columns. Services listed here
	      do not get a "History" button.

       TEST2RRD=test,test
	      A comma-separated list of the tests that have an RRD graph.
