I can see this in the output of 'monit -vI' using 1.2.3.4 as a test IP
with no connectivity.
'1.2.3.4' icmp ping succeeded [response time 0.000s]
# ping 1.2.3.4 -c 5
PING 1.2.3.4 (1.2.3.4) 56(84) bytes of data.
--- 1.2.3.4 ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 4012ms
I see this on two other debian servers also running the same version of
monit.
FWIW I'm running monit 5.0.3 and it seems to work for me:
---------------
ICMP failed Service 1.2.3.4
Date: Tue, 23 Mar 2010 08:33:28 +1000
Action: alert
Host: myserver
Description: failed ICMP test [Echo Request]
Your faithful employee,
monit
---------------
Nothing about this appeared in the output of 'monit -vI' though, and it
took a few minutes for the e-mail to be sent after loading monit.
Cheers,
Adam.
