KeepAlive keeps saying “host down”

Posted by JPSelter on February 24, 2010 at 16:33

Hello!

I´m still testing with Pandora FMS 3.0. So far I have 6 hosts that I watch with a KeepAlive module (two switches, four server). Every couple of hours I get “host down” alerts from all of these hosts. I set the threshold to 10 but it keeps saying “host down”. The alerts turn into “host up again” after only a few seconds. Why does Pandora give these alerts even all hosts are up all the time?

Second… when looking onto the graph for KeepAlive I should see a constant solid line for the host (it has been up all the time). But instead I see large gaps, as if the server has been offline for 12 hours… but it hasn´t…

Thanks for any help on this!

The server itself seems to have pocket loss all over again…

I´m using the VM Image on another hardware, but there´s another problem… see other thread…

For solving the VM Image problem with keep alive.

About the configuration of keep alive, it works the same way as host alive. Take a look at:
