Hi!

I wanted to cheackout how you are testing your WhatsUp installation.
I mean how do you actually knows that all errors are triggering the
important mail/sms etc..?

I am for example monitoring the windows 2000 eventlogs on my servers, and
WUG triggers on many things. But I cant test if it triggers for critical
problems like disk failure, disk full, ups down, cpu blown up and so on.

Two critical errors to easily try is to pull one hot-swap disk or just
unplug one ups.. But I dont dare. ;-)
The more easily things to trigger is to logon with a wrong password, and
generating an warning. But this is quite soft problems.

Now what I would like to see is an application that can simulate all kind of
problems. A kind of "honeypot" for errors...

What are you other having for thoughts regarding this issue?
