Ravi, Hostmonitor's SNMP test is excellent provided the OIDs are fed properly. I monitor various Cisco interfaces including Frame-Relay sub-interfaces. Before Hostmonitor, I used to monitor using "Solarwinds". This has an MIB walker which helps me in getting the OIDs. Unfortunately, I have...

Alex, At present, in order to raise precise alerts, we configure Master tests frequency high ( ex. every 1 minute ) and Dependant tests less frequently ( ex. 2 minutes ). When there are 3 or more tests each dependant on the previous one ( ex. Firewall, Internet Router, WAN link, Router on other side...

Alex, This would be a great feature. I myself need it badly. At the moment, I am diverting alerts as SMS messages. But we are facing lot of delays in message delivery. This is especially true at certain times of the day and Festival seasons due to the tremendous traffic. Request you to give it a bet...

Alex, I managed to get the desired result. I defined a new 'ODBC Query' test, defined a query to get 'AvReply' for the particular SNMP test from 'DBF-FULL' and configured 'Alert' when value is '>' some value. It works fine. Still, if you can give a better, simpler solution, would highly appreciate i...

Alex,

I appreciate your situation. For the moment, I will try Marcus's suggestion.

Thanks,

Marcus, Thanks for the tip.

Arun.

Alex, Maybe I shouldn't have used the word 'macro variable'. I am just interested in raising an alert when the 'Average reply' value crosses a certain limit. As mentioned above, I am collecting a WAN link throughput (bits/second) using the 'SNMP' test method. The utilization keeps fluctuating. But a...

Marcus, I see that your example goes through ALL URL tests only and replaces the full commenline. My situation is, a particular commentline contains several numbers each separated by a Comma. I want to replace one particular number with another and rest of the contents should be unchanged within the...

Alex, Will wait for that feature. My situation is like this. I have defined only ONE email profile. "To" is %commentline1% and "Sub" is %commentline2%. In each test I mention mobile numbers of respective support staff in commentline2. I have defined myself in a lot of tests. I ha...

Alex,

Suppose my commentline2 contains 1122,3344 in several tests spread accross different folders. I need to change 1122 in commentline2 to 5566 from ALL TESTS. Can you suggest a commandline in HM script to do the same ?

Thanks for adding second wish to 'to do' list.

Arun.

1. In my test properties, Commentline1 contains email addresses for sending alerts, Commentline2 contains Mobile Numbers of respective support staff who receive SMS alerts via an email2sms gateway. These staff keep changing regularly. Can you suggest/provide an automatic way of updating/modifying ea...

Alex,

I upgraded from Version 3.64 to 3.68. The SMTP response times of our servers have reduced to ZERO from what used to be about 94ms in all previous versions. Pls enlighten on this.

Thanks.

Alex,

For the test "Check Oracle Server", is it possible to provide 'Timeout' option as well ? This will help me to enable an alert when the response slows down.

Thanks,

Alex,

Is it possible to give password protection even to get to the main screen ? Also, can priviliges be set for different folders to different usernames ? Basically, a user database with different definable privileges.

I have done that. Its fine.

Thanks Alex.
