RE: [SA-list] OT - System / Network Monitoring

2007-08-15 Thread Carroll, Andrew
Kevin,

I know SA can do SNMP monitoring, although I haven't yet considered
implementing any. Any examples would be useful.

I am looking to provide simple real-time view of the current network
status, generate a history of status changes, log and display a variety
of system performance data, that sort of functionality.

I thought this would be something I might find information on Michael
Shook's user group forum: http://saug.snarkybox.com/ but this seems to
be an under used facility, which is a shame as it would be the ideal
place to discuss this sort of thing.

Just fishing for ideas and interested to see if any forum members are
using anything that I might find useful.

Regards,

Andy

SA can do SNMP monitoring.  What are you trying to accomplish?

Hmm, could be.

Ah, yeah, I see, I forgot I changed the application to run as a 
different user so I've got both copies there.

Thanks.

Sounds like when you modify SA using the console as an applications
while SA is running as a service in the background. Is this the case?

I had seen this bug many versions ago, thought it was fixed and seeing
it again now.

I've created different groups to group my servers by function.

And then every time I open up SA, they have randomly rearranged
themselves.

For example, yesterday, I created a group called "Virtual Servers"

Put all 6 of my virtual server PING checks in there.  Closed SA... 
let it run over night doing its checks.

Today come in...

Under the Virtual Servers group I have two completely different
checks...
and ALL the virtual servers under a group "External Servers" which is a
subgroup under "My Entries"  Previously "My Entries" was empty and
"External Servers" was its own group.

Help please.

[SA-list] Groups randomly changing

I had seen this bug many versions ago, thought it was fixed and 
seeing it again now.

I've created different groups to group my servers by function.

And then every time I open up SA, they have randomly rearranged themselves.

For example, yesterday, I created a group called "Virtual Servers"

Put all 6 of my virtual server PING checks in there.  Closed SA... 
let it run over night doing its checks.

[SA-list] OT - System / Network Monitoring

2007-08-15 Thread Carroll, Andrew
Forum Members, (apologies up front for an off topic post)

I use Compaq / HP Insight Manager but I am not happy with the
functionality I get and I am considering other SNMP based monitoring to
work along side our Servers Alive installation.

Could I ask what other Network Monitoring tools other members are using?
Or any recommendations others may have.

Regards,

Andy
