  • [Bug?] Host Alive [module]

    Posted by Bty on November 26, 2009 at 13:55

    Today for the 2nd time at exactly 3:25 am every single Host Alive module stopped to work.

    After I restart pandora_server everything is back to normal.

    Check the attached pictures and the log
    We don’t have any network problem that I’m aware of.

    Pandora 3.0 RC2, your VMware Image.

    Solved

    I have increased the memory of the VMware image to 756Mb from the default 512Mb.

    Hi Fmorales,

     You don’t have to put anything in pandora_agent.conf for using “Host Alive”. The entire configuration of this module takes place using pandora_console interface.

     First, create a template with “Host Alive” module (Manage Modules -> Module Templates -> Create) and then, apply that to the agent (Agent configuration » Module templates).

     I hope this helps 😉

    Hello, thanks a lot, I am trying to generate a alert when a host is not responding on my network ….. as you can see in my picture … I have defined the host alive module and the alert … but
    it does not works … if I disconnect the host from the net… status of Host alive never change to red … and the other three modules change… the agent is out of limits …

    Where could be the problem?

    Thanks  a lot
