Hi,

I just set up OMD and so far it works great. With a little help from you I
am now monitoring 5 vmware servers, and it looks great. Now I also want to
monitor some services that we depend on externally. I want to monitor that
an external webpage is up.

I thought of setting up an active check for this, but I don't really
understand how to do this.

I go to Host & Service Parameters, and then to Active Checks, and Check
HTTP Service and Create rule in Main directory.

I specify the host I want to run the check on under Explicit hosts (the
name of the OMD-server)
In Name, I set the dnsname of the host I want to check the web service on,
and the Save

After that I go to Hosts & Folders and open my OMD-server, and press
Services. Under Active checks I can see the one I added, but it says PEND,
and "WAITING - Active check, cannot be done offline".

I am sure there are some documentation I have missed, but I can't seem to
understand what to do?

Any pointers?

Regards Roald Amundsen
