I could use it to monitor clustered services.  For instance, I would
like an alert for the SQL Service on the secondary SQL node to alert me
if the SQL Service is running since this would mean that the primary
node has failed.

Subject: [SA-list] Inverse result?


While checking out some of the "old" requests I came across several
mails
were people seemed to want an "inverse" result.  What I mean with that
is
the want the same check as what is available now except that the status
is
the inverse from what it's now.
Example:
                

        currently:
                        ping host
                                if host is up the entry is UP
                                
        with INVERSE
                        ping host
                                if host is up the entry is DOWN




        currently
                        nt service check
                                when the service is running     the
entry is
up
                                when the service is not running (or you
have
an authentication failure!!)    the entry is down

        with inverse
                        nt service check
                                when the service is running     the
entry is
down
                                when the service is not running (or you
have
an authentication failure!!)    the entry is up




I would like to know if the list sees this as a good new feature or not?
