connectivity test using active agents

Hello, I have a question about configuring connectivity tests for remote agents which are using the active test method. We have a test set up to ping the localhost from a remote agent, say, every 5 seconds for example. What is happening, is if the server is rebooted, or if the RMA agent is terminate...

dear rasc,
please stop being such a boner.



PS - why don't you just disable the alerts before you restart HM, then re-enable them afterwards?

Yes, I'm sure. If I try and re-run the test manually, it comes back as not connected still even though its connected in RMA manager. Only after I restart the RMA service on the client will the test run properly. I will email the log over for a couple clients and see what we can do. Thanks

I know this is a really old post, but its the only one I can find that pertains to my problem, and given that it is this much later, i assume the new builds should have these fixes built into the code. Unforunately, however, we are still experiencing the same issues. Tests will come back as RMA not ...

Any idea what could cause that? Also, this test is supposed to run every couple minutes, but if I dont do anyth...

I don't want to hijack this thread, but in the interest of getting a resolution for both of us, here are our details. The issue has occurred on several different environments. All use active RMA. Here is one example of what happens when the issue occurs: Test: server.domain.local C Drive Method: Dri...

I'm experiencing the same issue occasionally... What is strange, is we will sometimes have several tests that are performed by one agent, and one test will time out and show unknown and the other will show up as OK. I'm kind of lost on it, the only thing I can think of is to play around with the set...

yeah, eventually I figured that out, however i had mentioned it in the original post and asked if that was what was causing it, but never received confirmation on it. The tests seem to be running according to schedule now that we have the license installed. I have some other issues, but I will start...

for us, it turned out to be just what I had suspected... when the nag screen is up for the demo, it stops monitoring, which I initally wasn't aware of.
