Re: [SA-List] SA Freezing?

2019-04-11 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

We solved a similar problem by setting some checks in maintenance mode.
One of our servers was having trouble (not the Servers Alive server) and it was 
only after a reboot of that server that we could enable the checks again.

(tip for Dirk: add the field Unique ID to each line in the log file, that would 
make it easier to detect the check that should be disabled)

Other things to look at are if you do see the interface, what does the last 
line show and on the several freeze you got, does that last line points to 
something similar each time?
What are the last lines in the logfile?

Try turning that off temporarily and see if you get results. Turn every output

Re: [SA-List] S-alive unstable?

2018-12-04 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

Hi ,

>> "After an boot S-alive works fine 10 - 20 hours, but not more than that."
If you use "External (errorlevel)" checks, be sure to enable the "Kill the 
external application when not stopped in time" option.  Otherwise some badly 
written external commands (scripts) could consume all the memory.

Subject: [SA-List] S-alive unstable?

Hi all colleagues,

I'm experiencing Servers Alive version 9.0.2805 unstable in my environment. I 
receive timeout errors for my ping tests (and "exe process alive" tests) even 
while manual ping from command prompt answers in 10-100 ms.

Have tried:
- Different hardware (old laptop vs. new virtual machine)
- Different OS (Win 7 vs. Win 2012)
- More time between cycle runs (2 min vs. 9 min)
- Sent log files to supp...@woodstone.nu (got some help but no final solution)

Also scheduled windows boot once a week. After an boot S-alive works fine 10 - 
20 hours, but not more than that.  :-(

Demo version worked with 10 checking lines very fine for several months. Now I 
have 85 checking lines, it shouldn't be too much?

Have anyone faced similar symptoms? Any workaround ideas?

Re: [SA-List] What feature, checking type or alerting type is missing from Servers Alive?

2017-08-25 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

Hi Dirk,

I can think of two things (at this moment :) )


1.   Windows Automatic Update

I used to check the health state of Windows Automatic Update by checking 3 
registry keys (with a PS1-script and an External Errorlevel Check):

HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto 
Update\Results\Detect

HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto 
Update\Results\Download

HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\Auto 
Update\Results\Install

But since Windows 2016 those registry keys do not exist anymore. :(



It would be nice to have a way to check if the Automatic Update did his job.

I don't mean if the host is up-to-date (it will almost never will),  but just 
if there weren't errors in the Automatic Update process.



2.   AD replication
Microsoft has a very good tool for that, see 
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30005
But it seems like they will stop the distribution of it.

-  the tool is limited in time. Every few months I have to do a new 
download

-  about a year ago it wasn't available on the MS download site, only 
after a lot of customer complains it came back

-  there is a popup saying that I should use MS Operations  Manager 
Suite
A lot of people are complaining, see 
https://windowsserver.uservoice.com/forums/304621-active-directory/suggestions/11701692-bring-back-the-on-prem-ad-replication-status-tool?tracking_code=76b764b65f1c69f691a1094a79f00768

Subject: [SA-list] Servers Alive & Azure (checking) 


 


We're currently working on a new check type for Servers Alive were it would be 
possible to check Azure VMs (and as alert start/stop them too). 


 


 


We would like to know that IF you would use this, would you use this for VMS 
that are all within the same subscription or would you use it for several 
subscriptions? 


(so can we define the Azure subscription within the setup and that for each 
entry you would only need a very little details - or do we define the 
subscription with each entry?)

RE: Re[2]: [SA-list] Minimum permissions for free disk space check

2016-09-01 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

Hi Jonathan, 

 

Two things to consider: 

1.  NTFS rights on the drive/folder (i.e. C:\) 

2.  Rights on the network share (i.e. \\SERVER\C$) 

Local admins have sufficient rights on both levels, as you already knew. 

 

I suppose âBackup Operatorsâ or âNetwork Configuration Operatorsâ could 
help you out, didnât test it though. 

 

I understand the concern of DBA/Network admin. Just guessing that the Service 
Account you mentioned is just a simple account with âpassword never 
expiresâ and used for running Servers Alive service. Personally I use a 
âManaged Service Accountâ.  Thatâs a special type of account in AD 
version 2008R2 (and up), see 
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd560633(v=ws.10).aspx 
(https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd560633(v=ws.10).aspx).  A 
Managed Service Account still has to be member of the Local Admins group.  The 
advantage is that it changes its password every 30 (I think) days and modifies 
the service automatically.  

Maybe your DBA can agree with that. 

 

Finally: the problem is not related to Servers Alive.  I advise you to test it 
with: 

- logon to the Servers Alive server with your Service Account  (canât 
do that with a Managed Service Account, because nobody knows its password) 

- Type âdir \\SERVER\C$â at a CLI prompt 

 

Kind regards, 

Pieter

c$ is an admin share, you have to be an admin on the target machine to 
use/access this share. 


See if you can get C shared out as ready-only (and a different share name other 
than 'C') to the service account you are trying to use. 


Otherwise you will need to go into the registry and local security settings on 
the machine to change permissions of the c$ share.

Hi Dirk, 

 

Yes, I guess thatâs what Iâm asking. What access rights need to be given on 
the C$ share in order for a service account to read disk space? 

 

I have given the service account full rights on the C drive (not an option), 
and it didnât work. I added service account to local admins (not an option) 
and it *did* work. I added service account to âperformance monitor usersâ

file://SERVERNAME/C$ (file:///\\SERVERNAME\C$) ?? 

 

I want to use a service account to carry out the check, but DBA / Networks do 
not want to give the service account more than bare minimum permissions

- Rebooted server 

- Changed network checks to local, authentication is blank (local file) 

- Split out 15 checks to different start times out of 12 cycles 

- Upgraded to 2.0 build 60 

- Older Salive 7.2.2638

RE: [SA-list] ErrorLevel AGAIN

2015-12-10 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

Hi, 

 

I use the External (errorlevel) check with success.  If fact, 
its one of my favorite checks because it allows to check 
everything I want, as far as I can do a command line check. 

I use it with CMD-files and PS1-files.  Not with BAT-files, but in most cases 
you can just rename the BAT into a CMD file. 

 

I have 2 dummy batches (CMD and PS1) which I use to troubleshoot the check in 
SA : 

1. AlwaysError5.cmd 

exit /B 5 

 

2. AlwaysError5.ps1 

exit 5 

 

My config: 

·SA version 7.2.2628 

·Win2012 

·External (errorlevel) check, Alarm when MyBatchFile.cmd is <> from 0, 
Kill the external application when not stopped in time=ON, Timeout=5 sec. 

 

Kind regards, 

Pieter

Subject: RE: [SA-list] ErrorLevel AGAIN 

 

I think the answer is simple. Servers Alive can capture the ERRORLEVEL set by 
the application that is actualy executed.  And to execute a .BAT file the OS 
will (behind the scene) launch the command interpreter and this command 
interpreter will execute your BAT file.  The errorlevel we get back in Servers 
Alive is the one that is set by the command interpreter, not the one by the 
.BAT file executed within the command interpreter. 

 

If you start a command prompt and then the .BAT file, the OS can directly 
execute the .BAT without having to start another command interpreter. And then 
it's possible to see the actual errorlevel that is returned by the .BAT file. 

 

I personaly don't see a way to get the errorlevel back into SA when the OS is 
not returning it via the command interpreter back to the actual caller (SA). 

 


So the answer is (I think) it's not possible with a .BAT file.

[SA-list] WMI external COM check example

2015-06-16 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

Hi Dirk and SA users, 

 

Is there a manual for the WMI External COM check ? 

Or does anyone have some examples ? 

 

I want to read the system board temperature of a server. 

 

In Powershell it looks like this : 

PS C:\ get-wmiobject cim_temperaturesensor -namespace root\cimv2\dell | select 
Name, CurrentReading, CreationClassName 

Because the server has three temperature sensors (board, CPU1 and CPU2), I have 
to filter on #8220;name=System Board Inlet Temp#8221; 

get-wmiobject cim_temperaturesensor -namespace root\cimv2\dell | where  
{$_.name -eq System Board Inlet Temp} | select Name, CurrentReading, 
CreationClassName 

 

 

In Servers Alive I have this : 

Server = servername 

Namespace = cimv2\dell 

#8230; 

Class = cim_temperaturesensor 

Properties = CurrentReading 

Filter =  ??? I left this one blank, so I  get the temperature of the last 
one (being CPU2) 

(all other options left default) 

 

What shoul I type in the #8220;Filter#8221; field ? 

 

Kind regards, 

Pieter

RE: [SA-list] SQL server checks

2015-05-06 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

Hi all,

I prefer not to install SQL DMO (or SQL SMO since version SQL 2008r2) on the 
SQL servers because
- have to get an agreement of the SQL administrators
- have to do that on multiple SQL servers
- have to upgrade that on multiple SQL servers

That's why I installed the Native SQL Client and the SQL Command Line Utilities 
(sqlcmd.exe) on the Servers Alive server. Both are part of the SQL server 
(2012) feature Pack.
See http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29065, look for 
sqlncli.msi and SqlCmdLnUtils.msi.

Now I can use an External (errorlevel) check that triggers a CMD-job with an 
sqlcmd.exe syntax in it.

Example:  sqlcmd.exe  -S TCP:SQL_Server,Instance_Port_Number -d SQL_Database -i 
file.txt
file.txt contains the SQL query

Kind regards,
Pieter

So not only give the status on the db, but also the ability to execute a

Not sure if SQL SMO is able to do that.

 From my experience with external check, I prefer this type of checks 
 to be external.
 If the check takes a long time to complete it's not interfering with
 the other checks of SA.
 
 It would be nice if the check can work with different custom sql
 checks, eg. to see the results of some stored views.

 Subject: [SA-list] SQL server checks
 
 For some time we have a SQL server check in Servers Alive.  This check
 is based on SQL DMO, and only works with realy old version of SQL.
 For newer versions of SQL we have the add-on, however not for the
 newest version of SQL.
 
 There are some questions surrounding that.
  * what version(s) of SQL are you using (and want to check)
  * do you see it as a problem if the 'support' for those old versions
 of SQL (upto SQL2000) would be removed from Servers Alive
  * do you prefer it to be a build-in check (like the current SQL DMO
 based one) or do you prefer an external COM check for it

o   Yes or no connected to a virtual switch

o   Yes or no connected SCSI disk

o   Version of the Integration services in the VM, compared to the version of 
the Hyper-V host

o   With Intergration services are checked/unchecked (ex. Time Sync)

o   Existence of a snapshot (I doesn#8217;t want that on my production

We use Hyper-V here.   CPU Utilization, Memory usage, machine state (running, 
paused, stopped) would be the most useful checks.   However hyper-v function 
alerts would be even more useful.  Check the hyper-v State it is paused, then 
Start/resume virtual machine alert kicks off.

 Hi there,

 IÃÂ¢Ã¢âÂ¬Ã¢âÂ¢m
 running into a bug and am hoping for some help confirming that (and
 getting it fixed) or another way to accomplish what I want to do. Part 
 of
 utilizing jQuery requires the use of div tags, which of course have 
 to
 be properly closed. Because I want to use collapsible sets that use
 sa_hostname as the section title, I need to use nested saif blocks. 
 It
 sort of seems to work in one example and then not in another.
 
 My question is whether nested saif blocks is expected to work or not.
 
 For more detail (if it matters), hereÃÂ¢Ã¢âÂ¬Ã¢âÂ¢s the logic 
 IÃÂ¢Ã¢âÂ¬Ã¢âÂ¢m finding 
 myself
 trying to run through:
 
 * In the header (before sa_report tag) I open a div tag with 
 attribute
 of data-role=ÃÂ¢Ã¢âÂ¬Ãâcollapsibleset.
 * For ONLY the very first entry inside the sa_report tag, I need to 
 open
 a div tag with attribute of data-role=ÃÂ¢Ã¢âÂ¬Ã
 âcollapsibleÃÂ¢Ã¢âÂ¬. I canÃÂ¢Ã¢âÂ¬Ã¢âÂ¢t 
 have a
 /div tag first, or that would close the above section I just opened.
 * For every next entry, if the sa_hostname is the same as the previous
 one, I donÃÂ¢Ã¢âÂ¬Ã¢âÂ¢t want to close or open a new div tag at this 
 level
  * However, if the sa_hostname is new, I need to close out the
 previous div tag at this level and start a new one.
 * After the closing /sa_report tag I have the last /div tag to 
 close
 out the hanging collapsible for the last entry in the report, then I 
 have
 another /div tag to close out the collapsibleset started in the 
 header.
 
 To accomplish this, IÃÂ¢Ã¢âÂ¬Ã¢âÂ¢m using the following snippet of code:
 
 ÃÂ¢Ã¢âÂ¬Ã¢â¬ÂSNIPÃÂ¢Ã¢âÂ¬Ã¢â¬Â
 div data-role=collapsibleset data-inset=false

RE: [SA-list] The nexy version(s)....your vision

2014-11-03 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

Hi Dirk,

Any change in building this ?

1. A check to verify a value and/or existence of a registry key.  
I do this with an External Errorlevel Check now (and a script), but it
would be nice to have that as a native check. It could be an external
COM check.

2. A check to verify if a mail has arrived.
Something like the second half of the SMTP2POP3 check that already
exists, but based on the subject of a message (not the timestamp
generated by SA).  And an Alert that passes the subject as a parameter.
Example:
- Mail with subject = help me is send to per...@domain.com 
- SA monitors that mailbox with POP3, reads the message, sets an alert
and deletes the message.
- SA triggers an Alert (type Execute Command) and starts an application
with parameter help me

2014-10-06 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

Hi all,

 

I'm prepared to make my template available to the community.  Where can I post 
it ?

 

It looks like this (based on a test entries file):



 

 

Also, in that context, I would prefer some kind of a 'real' forum (instead of 
the mailing list) where we can post questions and answers. Seems to me it would 
be easier to search for old questions and answers.

 

Kind regards,

Pieter

I agree Anthony. 

 

Dirk has created a wonderfully flexible template system, and it#8217;s been a 
call by many (including myself) in the more than the 12 years I#8217;ve been 
using SA. One of my simple templates use to be available on the SA site. But 
others provided far better than I could produce with added scripting etc.

 

In the early days, there were a few that hosted their own shared templates, 
then Dirk kindly provided space on the Woodstone site to host them.  However 
there were/are only a few users that have ever answered the call. And of course 
we all thank them for that. I think for the most part, us Admins lacked either 
the time or the skill set to #8216;create#8217; nice looking functional 
templates that suit our specific needs.

 

If the templates are not forthcoming within the community, then we could either 
pay a third party web designer to create them, or see if Dirk has any solutions 
/connections. Maybe call out to the community to see what users want in a 
template. Then there is the question of recovering development time and costs. 
Would anyone be willing to pay for templates?

How about some additional report/output templates? I have the one that was

any out there has made their own report web pages can you share? This way we 
can at-a-glance see things up or down for anyone to view via a webpage.

How's the separation of the Check engine from the GUI on the road map? Or is
that no longer an issue. I haven't deployed 7.2 yet so I cannot speak to
potential improvements in that area. Maybe use of a DB for the host check

 One feature I would really use is the ability to search within the tree to 
 quickly locate an item.  Find, Find next match.  

Hit F3 or just start typing.


 In terms of reporting, it would be wonderful to offer sliced views of the 
 data on separate URLs #8230;

This can be done by creating a second (third, etc..) Output HTML template.

Not sure if we are talking about the same. The Check Entry Now option was 
available in previous versions. 

It is still in the manual of SA 7.2, page 20.



 

In previous versions (prior to version 2607, I think) any change to the entries 
file had to be saved (of course) and a restart of the service was necessary.

In recent versions, a restart wasn't necessary anymore. Or better, it was done 
by the GUI application automatically.

I assumed that that functionality made it impossible to have the Check Entry 
Now option.

[SA-list] F and T in grousp.grp file

2014-08-01 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

Was does the 'F' and 'T' (false/true ?) mean at the end of the line in the file 
C:\ProgramData\Woodstone\Servers Alive\groups.grp ?

 

Mine looks like this :

G,[Import],none,F

G0001,Devices,none,T

G0002,Printers,none,T

G0003,Internet  WAN,none,T

G0004,WiFi,none,T

 Peter Anderson: but all checks are set up for specific authentication

I find it easier to use an account for the *service* Servers Alive.Â  In that

a Win2012 server with a Managed Service Account (Win2008R2 Active Directory

This is a situation were the user running the check does not have enough rights

The GUI is running under 'your' context and probably you have rights on the 
remote system.

The issue is probably the user that is configured for the check itself.

[SA-list] calculate timestamp for Mailflow check

2014-06-03 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

Hi,

 

I have a question about the Mailflow COM check.

 

The message that is send contains a timestamp in the subject field, ex. 
SMTP2POP3 97421820140603.

It is obvious that the last part 20140603 refers to the date 2014, july, 3th.

 

Is it possible to calculate the time from the first part 974218 ?

In this example the message was send at 11:07.

 

Kind regards,

Pieter

In SA v7 we still have some IM options, some of them are no longer 
working (as the service no longer exists or got integrated into another

We would like to know IF you still want IM as alerting and if so what 
type/kind of IM you would like to have in SA.

What can be done (and is not yet done :-)), is to have the %h,%p and %r vars 
within the checks.  (we will have implement this for each check independantly). 

For %w  (IP address) I will be able to do the following
* if the IP is known we replace %w with the known IP
* if the IP is not known we replace %w with the hostname (%h)

I'll try to implement these changes over the weekend, hopefully for all 
checktypes.

If you create new entries via the IMPORT feature,then the hostnames will be 
adapted correctly, even within the check definition :-)

I see a use for %h, %p and %r as they are known within SA when the check is 
created.  The %w is however not known.  This means that the 1st time a check is 
done we can't use %w as the IP address isn't known yet.

Also the %h, %p and %r are known within SA but not within the COM checks, this 
means that we would have to convert the % parameters before the enter the COM 
part.

Let me have a look at it and see if and how this can be done.

This is indeed the case and also within the interface (main interface) you 
won't see the parameters of your commandline.

 

I added a registry switch to the latest beta (http://beta.woodstone.nu

Have a go with that version and let me know if it works fine for you.

The feature you always wanted in Servers Alive but always were afraid to ask

I finally found some (that's a good sign isn't it)

 

middot;Separate entries files for each group.  

As a consequence :

-SA should be able to read multiple entries files and append them.

-In Setup, General, Startup, Hostfile : should be a multiple line input 
box (and corresponding reg-key)

Ex. :  All entries in the file servers.txt contains all the checks in group 
servers, all those in printers.txt in group printers etc#8230;

This way it would be easy to create a set of entries on one instance of SA, and 
copy/move it to another instance of SA.

 

middot;Easy way to move up and down an entry one line.  Now SA only 
allows to move to first or last entry in the group/list.

Pieter

RE: [SA-list] Remote icon

2012-07-09 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

I had some troubles too when I started with SA (version 7) on Win2008R2 
recently, until I changed my way of working.

This is how I do it now :

-Run SA as a service 

o   with credentials of a local administrator (a service account) on the 
machines I want to monitor.

o   that process does the checks.

-For editing the check list I start SA interactively  

o   with parameter /guionly  (C:\Program Files (x86)\Woodstone\Servers 
Alive\serversalive.exe /guionly)

o   run it on the SA server

o   use my own credentials (also local admin)

o   after each change I have to save the entries file and stop/start the service

 

If I don't us the /guionly switch, both processes (service and interactive) use 
the same entries files, which leads to corruption of that file.

I do not use the Remote Icon. I'm not suggesting that the Remote Icon is a bad 
thing though (actually I never tested it - yet), but the method described above 
works fine for me.

 

Kind regards,

Pieter

2012-05-30 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

You could use an External (errorlevel) check that calls a CMD file.

In the CMD you can use dsquery.exe or dsget.exe (or a VBS or #8230;) to query 
the status of an account.

 

Kind regards,

Pieter

Subject: [SA-list] Domain account status query

 

Hi All, 

I am wondering if there is a way to query the status of a domain account, e.g., 
alert when a particular user account becomes locked out? 

I have been informed that my predecessor, the implementer of our Servers Alive 
installation, had a check set up to query the status of a particular account. 
But I can not find any checks performing this type of query, or any info on 
setting this type of check up in the documentation. 

Is there documentation on setting such a query up, am I missing it? 

Thanks 
Barry

RE: [SA-list] Ideas for new COM checks

2012-05-11 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

Hi Dirk,

 

Maybe something for checking a SQL Database. I know you provided already the 
Database (Microsoft SQL) check, but that requires installation of DMO on the 
SQL servers (or SMO on SQL 2008 r2). Not always possible or desirable or ...

 

We made a work around by installing the native SQL client and SQLcmd.exe on 
the SA server and created a CMD that does the same thing.  Both files 
sqlncli.msi and SqlCmdLnUtils.msi downloadable from 
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=16978 
(http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=16978) .

Then I added a External (errorlevel) check based on a CMD :

::Pieter Demeulemeester

::26/03/2012

::Controleert de beschikbaarheid van een database op een SQL server

::

::  %1 : servername or ip

::  %2 : instancename

::  %3 : databasename

 

 

@echo on

 

Set $SERVER=%1

Set $INSTANCE=%2

Set $DATABASE=%3

 

pushd C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn

 

sqlcmd.exe -l 60 -S TCP:%$SERVER%\%$INSTANCE% -d %$DATABASE% -q quit

Set $RESULT=%ERRORLEVEL%

 

popd

 

exit /B %$RESULT%

 

It works, but it would be easier (a nice-to-have feature) to have a built-in 
solution without the CMD.

 

Kind regards,

Pieter

We're looking for some good ideas for new COM checks for Servers Alive. 

If you have a specific checking need and it can't be done with Servers Alive,

then please share that with us..and maybe we'll make a COM check for it :-)

RE: [SA-list] SA on 64 bit

Can I do this :

1. install the new version on an a temp server

2. copy the file 'serversalive.exe' from the temp server to the production 
servers where Servers Alive version 7.0.2509 is already installed ?

 

Kind regards,

Pieter

If you're using Servers Alive v7 on a 64 bit OS, then it would be better to move

over to the current beta (http://Beta.woodstone.nu (http://Beta.woodstone.nu)) 
instead of using the release

v7 .  

There were some weird registry issues with the release which are solved in the

beta.

RE: [SA-list] SA on 64 bit

2012-05-11 Thread Demeulemeester, Pieter

And what's the difference ?

 

I guess some registry keys new to this version won't be created.  Does 
serversalive.exe uses default values for variables that are retrieved from the 
registry ?  And will those keys be created once I change an option in the GUI ?

 

If have to update several installations and I'm searching for the easiest way, 
like copy a file.

Little update on this:

doing a REAL install over the existing installation will be 
different then just copying the serversalive.exe file
