xymonclient.cfg - Xymon client environment variables

Xymon programs use multiple environment variables beside the normal set of variables. For the Xymon client, the environment definitions are stored in the ~xymon/client/etc/xymonclient.cfg file. Each line in this file is of the form NAME=VALUE and defines one environment variable NAME with the value VALUE.

Some environment variables are inherited from the "runclient.sh" script which launches the Xymon client: MACHINEDOTS The hostname of the local system. Default: Taken from "uname -n". MACHINE The hostname of the local system, with dots replaced by commas. For compatibility with Big Brother extension scripts. SERVEROSTYPE The operating system of the local system, in lowercase. Default: taken from "uname -s". XYMONCLIENTHOME The top-level directory for the Xymon client. Default: The location of the "runclient.sh" script.
