Can something be done about this?
I think the monitoring is "right" to disable your server. It's not your fault that it is unreachable, and it may not be equally unreachable from all parts of the net, and you may not be able to do anything about this. But still, unreachability from *some* parts of the net should already be sufficient reason to remove the server from the pool. The monitoring system currently supports distributed monitoring, which isn't really employed at this time. But even if it was, I believe the plan would be to be more conservative then, i.e. remove hosts if some of the monitors think the server is unreachable, unless those monitors think the same of many servers (which would indicate a general problem with the monitor). If you really want to do something about this, you need to find out where the connectivity problems originate from. There are various looking glass applications that provide you with visibility data for your system from different parts of the net. If some looking glasses show problems, you need to contact the operators of the networks involved and ask that they fix their connectivity. This is probably a multi-months project.
