XYMOND_HOSTDATA(8)	    System Manager's Manual	    XYMOND_HOSTDATA(8)

NAME
       xymond_hostdata	-  xymond  worker module for storing historical	client
       data

SYNOPSIS
       xymond_channel --channel=clichg xymond_hostdata

DESCRIPTION
       xymond_hostdata is a worker module for xymond, and as such it  is  nor-
       mally  run  via the xymond_channel(8) program. Whenever a status	column
       in Xymon	changes	to an alert state (usually  red,  yellow  or  purple),
       this module receives a copy of the latest Xymon client data sent	by the
       host,  and stores it on disk. This allows you to	review all of the data
       collected by the	Xymon client on	the server  around  the	 time  that  a
       problem	occurred.   This  can make troubleshooting incidents easier by
       providing a snapshot of the host	status shortly before a	problem	became
       apparent.

       Note:  This  module  requires  that  xymond(8)  is  launched  with  the
       "--store-clientlogs" option enabled.

OPTIONS
       --minimum-free=N
	      Sets  the	 minimum  percentage  of  free filesystem space	on the
	      $CLIENTLOGS directory. If	there is less than N% free space,  xy-
	      mond_hostdata will not save the data.  Default: 5

       --debug
	      Enable debugging output.

FILES
       All  of	the  host data are stored in the $CLIENTLOGS directory,	by de-
       fault this is the $XYMONVAR/hostdata/ directory.
