The 9.12 upgrade has fixed the issue with RCC.exe not being able to connect, however in the RCC client %host% and %hostaddr% still return the backslash characters. In Hostmon.exe %host% and %hostaddr% have the backslash characters removed. Does the 'HostAddr_IncludeSlashes=0' need to be added to the...

So what would be the 'best practice' configuration in this instance: Every server being monitored has a ping test at 15s intervals using the primary Active RMA for 'test by'. All other rules for a server (disk space, count files, event log etc)use the ping test as a master test. Should a new test be...
