Hello Listers, ARServer 7.1 Patch 4 MS SQL Server 2005
Has anyone used server A to watch for outages on server B? Since we do have slow periods overnight the production server has occasionally been knocked offline and panic sets in a 5AM when the day shift comes on. It always just takes a ARSystem Portmapper restart to get things going again. I'd like to set up something with the development server, which seems to be unaffected, to periodically ping the production server and perform X if it gets no response. Like Query a form on production every 30 minutes between Midnight and 5 AM. No reply of a known value will either: (In order of preference) 1. Restart the services on Production and send an email to let everyone know that a restart happened. 2. Email the Admin (me) 3. Email the operations team with instructions on restarting the services. (Operations people don't like to restart things because they get blamed for unrelated breakage.) Thanks, --- John J.
