You can already change check timeout for groups or types of checks using the changes wizard.
I would also like to offer my opinion that spending time on an autodiscover feature is less important than the current task of revamping the host file system. If the host file was a different file (i.e. a database) then you could use any number of other autodiscover utilities and do a mass import. This would also address the timeout because presumably you could write your own utility to do mas changes. As far monitoring internal health of systems many of those can be monitored using the perfmon checks. Wouldn't hurt to look at what is available using perfmon and then stating what else in particular you would like to check.

Servers Alive could really use some new features OpenSource Tools already have. For instance I'm missing: - Autodiscover Hots by ip or ip range -> Then get a screen with checkboxes for the usual things like ping, services, processes and so on - Multiple edit of check settings -> Change pingout timeout for multiple entries - Copy a server group with checks and then rename the ip and hostname for all checks - Support for monitoring internal health of popular enterprise software like Exchange, Sharepoint, SQL, Active Directory - Visualize my infrastructure with status from ServersAlive like http://www.nagvis.org/screenshots (http://www.nagvis.org/screenshots) I'd like to get the autodiscover feature as soon as possible because I need a awful lot of time adding new servers and checks to SA... Thanks!
