Registered address: 7th Floor, Hamilton House, 111 Marlowes, Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire HP1 1BB Registered in England No: 2831215 From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:sal...@woodstone.nu] On Behalf Of Paul A Mountcastle Jr. Sent: 06 August 2009 15:51 To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: RE: [SA-list] 10038 error Hi Mark, The error is on the actual ping, not on any check that may be dependent on it. I am able to ping the resource from a command line if SA is kicking out this error. Subsequent ping checks report same error once this error is generated once. Resolution seems to be to restart SA services. I set all checks to alert on less than 60% response and only if the resource is down more than 2 times. This error is reported back if I am checking internal or external resource using ping check. I understand the If...,Then logic, but I am mostly concerned as to what this error code means and how to resolve it without having to restart SA services at all hours. Thank you, Paul- Paul A.

When the failure occurs can you then ping the ip address from the same box from command line? Do subsequent ping checks succeed or fail from SA? If they succeed it maybe that you just need to change the check to alert when 2 or 3 times down. Alternatively you could have a check test for link down on primary link using the inverse check box which does not generate an alarm or sends an alarm only to tech support (not the client) and have a dependent check to the secondary link to alert when it is down. Therefore the logic would be: If link 1 down check link 2 if down send alert to client. Even this approach can be problematic if the check occurs during failover there is scope in which both could say down at the wrong moment which is why a number of my checks only alert when 2x down.

Check is a ping to an external WAN interface on an internet router. I know the service is not down. I also see this when pinging internal machines as well, but only if my ISP failover kicks in.

When I experience a failover from one circuit to another, Servers Alive kicks out the following error: (ERR: [10038] Socket operation on non-socket(25039)) A restart of Servers Alive seems to resolve this error. Why does this occur? I am not always able to restart the services in a timely manner, as it sometimes happens overnights; This leads to my clients getting false alerts. Thank you, Paul- Paul A.
