One thing that might cause something like that is that SA
cache IP addresses. This means that if the SA system is set to check HOST
and host was resolved to IP_A and you then remove IP_A then you will get a DOWN
situation since it's won't be checking for HOST but for IP_A.
A restart of SA should then solve this.
In v5 the caching can be limited to a number of
cycles.

Is IP B possibly on a different subnet to IP A? Can you ping the
servers being checked from the server running SA?

SA use the normal routing of the OS, there is no way of forceing the use of a specific nic/IP.Dirk.

Subject: [SA-list] Changing IP of SA server and remote server
Hi,Our SA server and monitored servers has 2 IP addresses on each machine. Let's call them IP A and IP B. Each IP is on a separate network card. We have decided to remove IP A from all servers (include SA server) and found that SA cannot locate the monitored servers.
May I know is there any settings in SA does allow me to direct SA to use IP B?
Thanks.
Best Regards,
WY
