currently, nothing.
Dirk.
OK, so what can I do about it?
Thanks

A lot of API calls (and ODBC calls are also like them)
can block a complete system, the only way around this is to kill the thread
that is doing the check (and that is hanging) something MS says not to
do.
Dirk.
Currently running SA 4.1.1609 on Windows 2000
sp4.
We have a number of checks that use the External ODBC
com check. Basically they run a query against a database that resides on the
server being checked.
For the last three evenings, Servers Alive has
stopped responding when performing this check. The check is performed
throughout the day without any problems and it is at approximately the same
time that it stops.
The log shows usually shows something like
this
30/09/2004 7:19:58 PM
External COM check started (W00000002,209)
30/09/2004 7:19:58
PM External COM check
(W00000002,209):Successfull connection (0)
When SA hangs it shows this,
30/09/2004 7:27:31 PM Disk space checking on \\WEBTEST\D$: 13967.6640625 Mbytes free
30/09/2004

available
1/10/2004 11:45:22 AM DUN installed and available for SA
As you can see the check executed successfully just 7
mins before it hung. There are no other
error messages or event log entries to explain why it stops at this
point.
Hope someone
can help with this.
Thanks
