Set up the unix box for snmp, have it trap to wug. When wug sees a "coldstart" trap from this device, it knows the unix device has rebooted, restart the service, and done.

I am having difficulty finding out what the "WUG status would be". On a reboot of a Unix server the alert status is down, then up. I just dont want to setoff the program batch file on a down condition and I dont want to activate it on just an up condtion. The condtion has to be a "reboot", which is down then up. So it might be difficult to find the proper WUG condition for the program notification to activate upon. There aren't any event viewer error codes I can go on either on the W2K side of things. The service on the w2k server remains started as though it doesnt know that the Unix server just rebooted and disconnected it. So what I do now is manually stop the service on the w2k server, then start it again after the Unix administrator tells me he rebooted the database(unix) server. If you find anything or have any ideas, please keep sending them my way and thanks! -----Original Message----- From: Richard Beckmannflay [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 09, 2002 10:14 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [WhatsUp Forum] stopping and starting a service in whatsup go ld You'd best look at the NOTIFICATIONS, setup a PROGRAM Notification, put NETSVC.exe from the Windows Res Kit, which will allow you to remotely start/stop a service based on a WUG status. Richard -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 10 December 2002 1:22 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] stopping and starting a service in whatsup gold Hello, I am running whatsup gold 7.03 on a windows 2000 platform. My question is: Can I stop and start a service that is running on a windows 2000 server every time our Unix server gets rebooted? I know there must be a script of some sort out there. We have a Unix server that contains an Oracle database. When that server gets rebooted it affects a service that remains started on the windows 2000 application server. So what I do each time is manually stop the service and then start it again on he W2K device. If this can be automated thru whatsup gold all the better!! Please help.
