If SA isn't running that it can detect that change…not much we can do about that.
Would this also mean that you would want (example): Check Name Down At Up At Outage Duration LDAP Server 27-Aug 4:06 PM 27-Aug 4:32 PM 26 Minutes LDAP Server 27-Aug 7:06 PM 27-Aug 7:30 PM 24 Minutes LDAP Server 28-Aug 4:06 AM 28-Aug 7:30 PM 204 Minutes is the entry went down several times in the last week? Also for the week starting on Aug 24th (at midnight), how would you handle the fact that the entry went down on the 23rd at 11:58pm? Should it mark this down at 23rd 11:58pm or starting 24th at midnight? Dirk Bulinckx. From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brett Hanson Sent: Friday, August 29, 2008 4:41 PM To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: Re: [SA-list] Servers Alive and reporting One report we've been struggling with for the last couple years is an activity report. We'd like to see a report that shows outages detected by Servers Alive in the past 7 days. This report would show the check name, when the check went down, when it came back up and the duration. Any checks down when the report is run would show as 'Currently Down'. For example: Check Name Down At Up At Outage Duration LDAP Server 27-Aug 4:06 PM 27-Aug 4:32 PM 26 Minutes Service A 29-Aug 3:10 AM Currently Down 5 Hours 17 Minutes Our biggest issue is problems with accuracy that result when Servers Alive is restarted - a check that was down before Servers Alive was shut down and was up when Servers Alive started again is not detected as a status change, and no database record showing the transition exists. Regards, Brett Hanson Systems Analyst Agrium >>> "Dirk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 8/29/2008 3:50 AM >>> One of the often returning question on Servers Alive is if it can do reporting. We always point to the HTML template based output and to the DB logging (using a 3rd party report writer). Still it seems that this is not what people are looking for. That's why we would like you to help us with some brainstorming around that reporting feature. I'll start by giving my own idea on it. * it's based on the HTML template based output * it can be set to be executed (generated) once a day and you can select what "entries" go on it * you can ofcourse have several output's and for several sets of entries * additional parameters are needed like % up cycles % down cycles % maintenance cycles and this per DAY, WEEK, MONTH, YEAR with "easy" access to the current (day/week/...) and the previous (day/week/...) and also access to other days/weeks/months/year. Example: <sa_stats_up_week{pervious}%>gives the up% of the previous week <sa_stats_up_week082008%>gives the up% of week 8 of 2008 <sa_stats_down_month082008%>gives the up% of month 8 of 2008 All ideas/comments/additions are MORE THEN WELCOME Dirk Bulinckx.
