From the Whats UP Help File:
Resume previous device & service states when maps load: If this is selected, WhatsUp Gold remembers the state the devices and services were in when the map was closed. So, if something was down, it will still be down when the map is opened again. Example: If the WhatsUp Gold computer requires a reboot for maintenance (after installing a service pack for your operating system),with this option selected, WhatsUp Gold will NOT re-alert you concerning the device and service states that you already know about.
This does not seem to work for us at all even though I have it checked or I am misunderstanding its functionality.
Does the above simply mean it will NOT realert on down devices or that the “state” of the device will be remembered as well. So if the system comes back up with 10 down devices I will immediately see those 10 devices in red instead of waiting for them to recycle to down??
We are running 8.03 HF1 and recently Whatup is crashing more with some sort of C runtime error recently ( about 1 time per week) now so device states are starting to become a issue.
