I went back to look at things and decided I have no idea how to run si_monitor. -help doesn't tell me what's required, though I suspect -db may be? I guess I assumed you just run it and would interactively see the output from the clients. That what I'm doing with my monitoring code. I do see a couple of entries in /var/lib/systemimager/clients.xml, but only a couple. I don't know if this is right or wrong.
When I try running si_monitor it tells me: [EMAIL PROTECTED] sbin]# ./si_monitor -db /tmp/test warning: log file was not specified: ignoring log level: 2. Then I tried: ./si_monitor -db /tmp/test -log /tmp/log which seemed to work but when I looked at /tmp/log all it had in it was: [EMAIL PROTECTED] sbin]# cat /tmp/log Wed Aug 2 20:02:31 2006: error: could not bind to port 8181 : Address already in use Is it a correct assumption on my part that once everything is configured I should be able to run si_monitor and see messages displayed on my terminal as they occur on the client? If so, what is the magic set of switches that will do that? btw - I'll be happy to share my code but I'm not sure what it will do that this doesn't already do, once I figure out how to use it. 8-) -mark Bernard Li wrote: >Hi Mark: > >If you have monitoring working, then client information will be stored >in /var/lib/systemimager/clients.xml. > >We should try to figure out how to get your si_monitor(tk) working. >Also we would welcome your monitoring code to further enhance what we >already have! > >Thanks, > >Bernard > > > >>-----Original Message----- >>From: Mark Seger [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >>Sent: Wednesday, August 02, 2006 11:07 >>To: sisuite-devel@lists.sourceforge.net >>Cc: Andrea Righi; Bernard Li >>Subject: Re: [Sisuite-devel] Atomic write in si_monitor >> >>As andrea knows I never got the monitoring code to work at all. >>However, I threw together some socket code I had lying around >>and it was >>very happy to receive data from the clients.
