DESCRIPTION
Tries to connect to all instances specified your sqlhosts file and sends
the status to your Xymon/Hobbit Server. Each server will be sent a
single test called database which is red if any single database is down.
Status page shows status of all db instances on that host.
You must install DBI and DBD::Informix for this module to work.
CONSTRUCTOR
my $informix = Xymon::Monitor::Informix->new({.....});
All parameters are optional and are listed below:
CONTIME - connection timeout (default 5)
CONTRY - connection tries (default 1)
INFORMIXDIR - informix directory ($INFORMIXDIR) (default /informix)
LD_LIBRARY_PATH - default (/informix/lib:/informix/lib/esql/)
HOBBITHOME - hobbit/xymon dir (default home/hobbit/client/)
The script listed in the synopsis is all you need to send updates to
Xymon/Hobbit, however you will also need to add the script to your
hobbitlaunch.cfg file.
A group of lines like the following should work.
[informix]
ENVFILE /home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg
NEEDS hobbitd
CMD /home/hobbit/server/ext/ifxcheck.pl
LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/informix.log
INTERVAL 30
The installation script asks you where you want to install the included
test script. It should go in your hobbit ext directory.
METHODS

to master hobbit server.
