criticalview.cgi(1)


NAME

   criticalview.cgi - Xymon Critical Systems view CGI

SYNOPSIS

   criticalview.cgi

DESCRIPTION

   criticalview.cgi is invoked as a CGI script via the criticalview.sh CGI
   wrapper.

   criticalview.cgi matches the  current  critical  statuses  against  the
   critical.cfg(5) file, and generates the "Critical Systems" view.

RELATION TO OLD CRITICAL PAGE

   This view is a replacement for the statically generated "critical" page
   provided in versions of  Xymon  prior  to  version  4.2.  Although  the
   "critical"  pages are supported throughout Xymon 4.x, it is recommended
   that You switch to the newer Critical Systems  view  provided  by  this
   CGI.

OPTIONS

   --acklevel=NUMBER
          Sets  the  acknowledgment level for acknowledgments sent via the
          ackinfo.cgi(1) page. Note that this may  be  overridden  by  the
          configuration of the ackinfo.cgi utility.

   --tooltips
          Hide  the host description in a "tooltip", i.e. it will be shown
          when your mouse hovers over the hostname on  the  webpage.  This
          saves  space on the display so there is more room for the status
          columns.

   --hffile=PREFIX
          Define the header/footer files used when building  the  webpage.
          The  actual  files  used will be PREFIX_header and PREFIX_footer
          found in the ~xymon/server/web/ directory. Default: critical.

   --env=FILENAME
          Loads the environment defined in FILENAME before  executing  the
          CGI script.

   --area=NAME
          Load  environment  variables  for  a specific area. NB: if used,
          this option must appear before any --env=FILENAME option.

   --debug
          Enables debugging output.

   --config=FILENAME
          Use FILENAME as the configuration file for the Critical  Systems
          information.    The    default    is    to    load   this   from
          $XYMONHOME/etc/critical.cfg

   --config=ID:FILENAME
          Allows the use of multiple Critical Systems configuration  files
          on  a  single  webpage. "ID" is a text that will be shown on the
          web page prior to  the  critical  systems  from  FILENAME.  This
          option can be repeated to include critical systems from multiple
          configurations.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

   XYMONHOME
          Used to locate the template files for the generated web pages.

   QUERY_STRING
          Contains the parameters for the CGI script.
