Re: [WhatsUp Forum] WUG Web Server Granularity

[Joe Sepielli]

Dan,
This may work:
Move this:
<A href="rcnotifylist.asp">Recurring Notifications</A>
To this section:
<%IF% IS_USER_CONFIGURE_USERS>    
or
<%IF% IS_WEBSERVER_CONFIGURATION_ENABLED> <!-- APPSETTINGS CONFIGURE -->
or
<%IF% IS_USER_CONFIGURE_PROGRAM><!-- USER PROGRAM CONFIGURE -->

I tried that Joe, and it worked.  The problem is that it only shows up
on the topview page, which has nothing to report.
Is there a way to get it on the normal subnet pages as these are where
the devices that need performance graphs are.
Also, would it be easier to comment out the configuration of recurring
reports on these pages as that would achieve the same result for me.
Thanks for any light you can shed on this.

Dan,
Here is an example of how to make the "Performance Graphs" link
available
to quests.
- Edit topview.asp.
- Look for
<%IF% IS_CONFIGURE_REPORTS_ENABLED>
Cut the following:
<A href="ReportPerformanceGraphs.asp">Performance Graphs</A>
and paste it after this line:
<%INCLUDE% MainPageSuffix.asp>
Regards,
Joe

I am using WUG V8.03HF2 and I am allowing our end users to view the
web
interface with the ability to "Access Tools" and "Access Full Log".  I
also wanted to give them access to the statistics and outage reports,
but when I do this, they also have the ability to reconfigure the
recurring reports.  Having them reconfigure the recurring reports is a
non-option for me.  Is there a way to just give them access to the
stats
and outage reports?
The setup is pretty simple.  There is one map with 25 sub-maps, each
representing a location in North America.  Each of them is a single
map.
I am using the .ini file format for the maps.  I am using the web
server
as is, out of the box and have not "customized" it with anything
beyond
what the program automagically set up.
Any advice would be appreciated.
I'm not ready to make the plunge to WUP from all that I have read so
far
on the list.
Thanks, Dan . . .

Subject: RE: [WhatsUp Forum] Occasional Missed Checks....

________________________________
" I've tried changing the down to down for 2 minutes.  That only
triggers an UP alert after it sees the device as down.  I don't get
the
alert for down but I get an alert for UP.
What I did in WUG was to change the poll to use services instead of
ICMP.  That worked great and I was able to see that the system was up
except when it could not get to the service (HTTP, FTP, Exchange,
etc.).
I can't seem to find that option in WUP 2005. "
        
        I raised this issue in a previous post. An Ipswitch rep on this
forum stated that they are aware of the issue that even when you
increase the trigger to 2 or 5 minutes an Up alert is still sent. She
said that this was being addressed in service pack 1 due this first
quarter.
        
        Regarding polling services instead of ICMP, this is easy!  First
double click your device (or right click/properties) and select the
"Active Monitors" tab in the window. This is the same as the old
services in WUG. Click add and add the service you wish to poll. You
can
configure each one and associated alerts/actions independently from
each
other.
        
        If the service you want is not there you can create your own by
selcting "Active Monitor Library" in the configure menu on the tool
bar
at the top.
        
        Nonetheless, going back to the start of this thread, changing
the service type will not help the amount of missed checks you will
get
as I have been there and tried that and we still get loads.
        I have ran WUP and WUG on the same server and on different
servers for comparison and we still get excessive misses for the same
checks in WUP relative to WUG. We are finding that this product is
causing more tech support overhead than from not having any monitoring
at all. If SP1 doesnt fix these issues then WUP will be in the trash
very soon.
        
        I suspect that the polls are not even leaving the host server at
all. When I have some free time I may set up some packet tracing to
try
and discover why this annoying problem is occuring.
