grouping information. Statusmon::grouping: added read_groups() and
enum_groups() method.
2000/10/07 22:43:25 (aeby) bsmonitor/bsmon.pl, bbd.pl, RotatingLog.pm:
when it's time to do a logrotate for var/status.log:
- bbd (RotatingLog.pm) logs a 'logrotate' command in status.log
- bbd (RotatingLog.pm) tries to rename the log file for 60 secs
- bsmon closes status.log as soon as it sees the logrotate command
- bsmon re-opens status.log when its size changes
This is for Win32 systems (on Windows NT you cannot rename an open file,
so both bbd and bsmon have to close status.log before bbd can rotate
it...)
2000/10/01 17:10:55 (aeby) common.pm:
log(): change syslog level "warn" to "warning" (some modules erroneously
use "warn")

added sample configuration for bsmon SNMP traps
2000/08/09 15:20:33 etc/syslog:

platforms/*.pm: introduced $Platform::has_fork flag. Statusmon:
introduced background() and abort() method. Rsync: Use background()
method instead of calling fork(), work also if backgrounding is
impossible (Windows NT). bs_evgen: do not flush states() if module
was abort()-ed (e.g. when running in a child process).
2000/07/25 15:09:55 bsmonitor/Statusmon/DisplayCFG.pm:
use the cfgfile module instead of the builtin config file reader
2000/07/25 15:08:39 bsmonitor/bsmon.pl, bsmonitor/Statusmon/bs_evgen.pm:
use the cfgfile module instead of the builtin config file reader
2000/07/25 14:37:17 uxmon-net, uxmon/uxmon-rules-generic.pl:
use the cfgfile module instead of the builtin config file reader -
therefore the include statement now works ...
Clear the argument hash (%args) after each invocation of a Config/*
monitor configuring script in order to avoid side effects.
Added the "DEFAULT" feature (see sample uxmon-net)
2000/07/25 14:32:30 tools/cfgfile.pm, Makefile:
added 'cfgfile' module as a standard module for reading config file
and offering some minimum basic semantics (such as the "include" statement,
'#' as the comment character, etc.)
2000/07/13 19:52:53 bbdisp.pm:
use main::status_texts for backgrounds
2000/07/13 19:21:00 bsmonitor/Statusmon/Display.pm:
make status summarize to "clear" if group is empty
2000/07/13 18:19:11 uxmon/Monitor/ping.pm:
new fping style of reporting
added support for -C option, reports standard deviation and variance as well
as max/min/avg. Next step is to add a monitor to the standard deviation (as
soon as I figure out what good defaults are)
2000/07/13 18:17:13 uxmon/Monitor/snmp.pm:
relative walk oids update
2000/07/13 18:14:09 uxmon/Monitor/cmd.pm, uxmon/Config/dns, uxmon/Config/ntp:

2000/06/26 22:40:30 uxmon/Monitor/ping.pm:
detect open3() errors, detect hosts that don't respond or fail
2000/06/26 22:37:10 uxmon/Config/_snmp:
operstatus is NOT a differential check (duh)
2000/06/26 22:08:23 bbd.pl:
bbd dies mysteriously, fixed.
2000/06/22 20:20:28 Schedule.pm:
do all checks on reconfigure (fix)
2000/06/22 19:01:01 uxmon/Config/software, uxmon/Config/ntp:
args hash is inherited, don't modify it in Config scripts...
2000/06/22 19:00:58 uxmon/Config/metastat:
args hash is inherited, don't modify it in Config scripts...
2000/06/21 18:32:48 bsmonitor/Statusmon/Display.pm:

Added mibs for atmport and software checks. (No one complained?)
2000/06/20 22:28:53 uxmon/Monitor/mrtg.pm:
Use PNG images now that that is the default for mrtg. People using GIF
will have to modify mrtg.pm, search and replace -day.png with -day.gif.
2000/06/20 22:19:55 uxmon/Monitor/fs.pm:
Report verbose status via status 100
2000/06/20 22:13:28 uxmon/Monitor/atmport.pm:
Sync atmport with my local copy.
If a switch is down when the module is loaded, the port cannot be resolved
to a number. In this case, we now fall back to a staticly configured hash
of expected port values. (FORE specific)
2000/06/20 22:07:03 uxmon/Config/_snmp, uxmon/Monitor/snmp.pm:
SNMP structure modified to allow for walk_checks. One walk queries the
values used for many standardized,summarized checks. (see ifErrors check)
2000/06/20 21:55:53 uxmon/Config/bsdisplay, uxmon/Monitor/bb.pm:
Added bind_ip directive used in conjunction with bsdisplay or bbdisplay. Used to specify the
source ip address to use in outgoing status updates. Useful for machines with multiple IPs.
2000/06/20 21:33:34 log_mail.pl:
Set QMAILUSER and QMAILNAME to some defaults. If using qmail, it sets the
outgoing fields in mail, if not, it's harmless anyway.
2000/06/20 21:24:00 common.pm:
Added a line to use unix domain sockets for syslog. Commented out by
default just in case it would break people. It works for me, testing on
other OS's would be good.
2000/06/20 21:11:33 bb_start:
Set umask in bb_start, also use a login shell for su. Helps to set ENV
variables in case of mail.
2000/06/20 21:10:12 Makefile:
Modified Makefile to use perl for in-place replacement instead of "ed"
Anyone out there use ed? :)
2000/06/18 18:52:36 bsmonitor/Statusmon/grouping.pm:

made current_text and current_status variables accessible via main package
2000/06/12 17:16:07 Schedule.pm:
count minutes from program startup (therefore avoiding agents doing
the same at the same time)
2000/06/12 17:14:26 bsmonitor/Statusmon/Display.pm:
added Display bsmonitor module - creates and maintains the HTML status
pages in www directory (replaces old code in bbdisp)
2000/06/12 17:13:19 bsmonitor/Statusmon/DisplayCFG.pm:
fixed bugs in skin handling (assign them consistently to keys in
the config hash), remember "www" dir
2000/06/12 17:12:09 bsmonitor/Statusmon/HTMLLog.pm:
take configuration from "config" feature provider, listen to config
events

made transparent
2000/06/12 17:03:18 bbdisp.pm:
bbdisp is not responsible for group status / HTML status page writing
2000/06/12 17:02:39 bbd.pl:
bbd is not responsible for writing HTML status pages any more - removed
relevant code
2000/06/12 11:10:57 bsmonitor/Statusmon/DisplayCFG.pm:
use "display" feature provider instead of implementing read_skin() method
within this module
2000/06/12 11:09:16 bsmonitor/Statusmon/Statusmon.pm:
