Ok, thanks again for everybodies help I am beginning to understand the way Mon works :)
Anyway, I believe I have made some progress.. Mon now gives me the green light on my process monitoring, BUT I get an error like such: Server1 returned an SNMP error: Unknown user name Any ideas? Thanks, Craig -----Original Message----- From: zalktis [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 7 January 2005 9:49 To: Craig Reeson Subject: RE: Help with mon.cf switches Hi, Arguments (parameters) of mon server and process.monitor spawned for particular watchgroup is completely different things. Maybe - that's the problem? To use process.monitor you should: - install UCD-SNMP/NetSNMP software on target host - configure snmpd on target host, e.g: proc httpd 10 20 # number of httpd-s should be between 10 and 20 - start snmpd on target host (target host = host to check) Then you can manually check (from mon server shell): $ process.monitor -c SNMP_community_if_not_public host or you can add service in mon.cf which will be periodically checked by mon server using process.monitor. e.g: # example ------------------ hostgroup billing bill01.domain.com watchgroup billing service ping .... service disk-space ... ... service proc exclude_period wd{sun-sat},hr{18-7} description Check of billing processes depend SELF:ping interval 35m randskew 25s monitor process.monitor failure_interval 5m period alertafter 2 alert mail.alert [EMAIL PROTECTED] upalertafter 10s upalert mail.alert -u [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------- z __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
