Re: Runaway network bandwith alarms after upgrade
In the interest of not getting unnecessary alerts in the middle of the night due to this, I've simply replaced the existing test with the network saturation test - which is all I'm really after, anyway.

Re: Runaway network bandwith alarms after upgrade
Hi Martin, Apologies for leaving that out - yes, all the other servers were Debian Wheezy, and all have been upgraded to Debian Jessie. All are running MOnit 5.19. The server in question does get a lot of traffic, and notably 127.0.0.1 has significant traffic - After two days uptime, there's 30 GiB of data through lo. However, even that doesn't add up to greater than 3GB/hour.

Runaway network bandwith alarms after upgrade
I recently upgraded a couple of servers from Debian Wheezy to Debian Jessie. Since then, I'm getting frequent alarms from my network bandwidth test. The test: check network network-bandwidth with interface eth0 if total upload > 3 GB in last 1 hours then alert if total download > 5 GB in last 2 hours then alert if total download > 10 GB in last day then alert I wasn't getting alarms before the upgrade, so to try to be thorough, I rebuilt monit from source. No change. This is 5.19. The problem is that there's definitely not bandwidth anywhere near my testing values taking place. With an uptime of 1 day, 14 hours, eth0 shows: ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:50:56:a7:3e:8e inet addr:10.124.74.68 Bcast:10.124.74.127 Mask:255.255.255.192 inet6 addr: fe80::250:56ff:fea7:3e8e/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:27941718 errors:0 dropped:21 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:59281394 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:333591539 (318.1 MiB) TX bytes:4005580141 (3.7 GiB) Thoughts?
