RE: [SA-list] Agent based check (what OS should we support?)

The initial idea behind the agent was accesing system that are well protected. For examples checking system that are in a DMZ, were you can have access to the system over ONE port and not several (what is needed if you want to use Netbios like for the service/process/diskspace checks). Dirk

RE: [SA-list] Agent based check (what OS should we support?)

Well, yes, that's what we do at the moment. But the point of the agent is surely to minimise the number of checks that have to run across the WAN, replacing them with a single local agent. Am I missing the point somewhere? (Entirely possible - it's early in the day and I had a late night...)

disk space, process and service are good but a critical one for us would be the ability to check the event log as this is the check which causes the most problem over a remote connection. We have at least 20 different sites with an average of two servers per site and as such if each site has a 4

RE: [SA-list] Agent based check (what OS should we support?)

OK, I can live without database. However the more I consider it, the more I realise that SNMP checking is really important. To explain: our typical scenario is that we have servers in our European sites which are connected to a standalone UPS, linked for management via a USB or serial lead. The

RE: [SA-list] Agent based check (what OS should we support?)

The agents will not have all checks that Servers Alive has. The agent will be a subset. The current win32 agent (no not yet in beta), does diskspace, process and service checks. The agent is basicly only needed whne you have restricted network access to a remote system/site. Dirk Bulinckx

Re: [SA-list] Agent based check (what OS should we support?)

Win32 is actually the critical one for us. (Is that agent available? Are you looking for beta testers, Dirk?) I'd want it to do all the existing Windows checks - process, service, perfmon, diskspace, plus database stuff. Ideally it would do SNMP too - to check for example a non-networked UPS co
