I think it's more related to the time spent by smokeping to do his Job. When my ISP failed, a lot of Targets were unresponsive..
FPing: WARNING: smokeping took 493 seconds to complete 1 round of polling. It should complete polling in 300 seconds.. You may have unresponsive devices in your setup. Is it possible ? I just see one line for this alarm in my smokeping logs but on my graphs, i see a blank for 1 or 2 hours... So far, I have 94 targets which are using the Fping probes. Do I need to reduce the offset ? Best Regards, Nicolas. 2012/8/6 G.W.
