Hello, Firstly, many thanks for mon, it's really really great!
Have a small curiosity. I converted two OSS Xen machines to Citrix XenServer for a client, they've been getting alerts from mon similar to: Summary output : unusual errors Group : ping-servers Service : ping Time noticed : Tue Mar 31 12:47:50 2009 Secs until next alert : Members : sls-xen1 sls-xen2 sls-xen3 sls-xen4 Detailed text (if any) follows: ------------------------------- start time: Tue Mar 31 12:47:18 2009 end time : Tue Mar 31 12:47:19 2009 duration : 1 seconds ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ unusual errors ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ unidentified output from fping: [sls-xen4 : duplicate for [0], 84 bytes, 0.67 ms] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ reachable hosts rtt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ sls-xen1 0.53 ms sls-xen2 0.17 ms sls-xen3 0.38 ms sls-xen4 0.63 ms What's weird is that we get these alerts for xen1 and xen4 (Citrix XenServer) but not for xen2 and xen3 (OSS Xen) and didn't get the alerts for xen1 and xen4 prior to last night when they were OSS Xen. I'd like to see what output fping.monitor is complaining about. When I run fping.monitor manually (e.g. "./fping.monitor sls-xen4"), it shows normal output. I've also tried fping with various options and don't see any problems either. I looked at fping.monitor from the latest distribution (mon-1.2.0) and see there's been a number of changes since the version I was using (0.99.2-13). Sure enough using this latest version of fping.monitor resolved them problem. However, I'm still curious what exactly the old fping.monitor saw that the new one doesn't? Any ideas?
