When disabling/pausing tests

I would love a little text box that comes up that has enough space for a reason, or in our case, a ticket number. For us, this is part of our SOX compliance. That way when we go through the reports, I can see why tests were paused or disabled.

Delete child tests

Suggestion:

When I delete a master test, I should be allowed to delete all of the child tests along with it.

Thanks.

Change in Pause Test

The ability to pause tests is great... what I would love is the ability to schedule tests to pause. Essentially, a FROM and TO. Example: One of my team members has a scheduled maintenance on a server from 9pm to 11pm. Instead of me having to go into Hmon at 9pm to pause the test for two hours (or un...

I run Hostmonitor and the RMA under localsystem. There is one particular system we have where I need to monitor a homegrown application, and in order to monitor it, I need to run the RMA under a specific user account. I wanted to have our regular RMA on there monitoring things like disk space, cpu, ...

Multiple RMA as service

I read in the manual that you can have multiple RMA's running on the same server on different ports. This is great. Is it possible to do this while running it as a service? I've tried doing the install with the -install option, with rma's in different directories, but this did not work.

Thanks.

As a follow up to my last message, I have an RMA assigned to the Cluster Name, so I'm not checking each individual server, just the active node in the cluster.

I use an "Active Script" test. This is run by the RMA, so the 'objCluster.Open' statement is blank (meaning it will be the local cluster) const statusAlive = "Host is alive:" const statusDead = "No answer:" const statusUnknown = "Unknown:" const statusNotResol...

yes, same exact testlist. In fact, i'm using DFS to copy the files between the servers.

Thats what threw me off. I had it working fine on one machine, setup the DFS to the 2nd machine, turned one off and the other on, and these were the only tests that went bad.

URL Test

I have two hostmonitor servers (one is for DR). I have a URL test defined to check an internal website (this test is HTTPS), and it comes back OK as it should. On our 2nd Hostmonitor server, it always comes back as bad. I confirmed that I can access the site from Internet Explorer. Both are running ...

scheduling tests to pause

Would love a feature to be able to schedule to pause a test. Example: We get a notice that there needs to be system maintenance on a server from 9PM to 10PM. Instead of pausing the test until 10PM, or having to login in at 9PM to pause the test for an hour, I'd love the option to pause the test from...

Yes, however each trap message is considered a new event, so it doesn't parse the message correctly.

The software can parse each varbind, which will consist of the testname and the reply and other information we send it from hostmonitor.

Multiple VARBINDs for SNMP Traps

Is it possible to implement the option to allow for multiple VARBINDs in the SNMP traps?

right now we can only send one, and we need to send multiple so that our analysis software can separate the components.
