I just want to confirm that there is also no way to send alarms from one Host Monitor system to another one? (not using RMA)

Distributed Host Monitor

Our network design does not allow any connections from our 'less' secure segment to request data from the more secure segments, but we can send data out from more secure to less secure. We have Host Monitor installed in less secure zone in order to allow more users to connect to it and for it to hav...

Replicator - Create Folders during Import

Is there anyway to create folders and subfolders during an import with Replicator? If not.. that would be a great enhancement. If so, can you instruct me? Thanks!

Check for NT account lock out

Is there anyway to test to see if an NT domain user account has been locked out? Sometimes our admin account that we use for HostMonitor gets locked out and we don't always discover it until several hours have past. This means that for these several hours, we aren't checking very many of our tasks. ...

[quote]Its very easy to configure using regular schedule. [/quote] Maybe all my confusion, then, is related to the timing thing. How do I schedule a test to run at exactly the same time each day? It looks like the hours/minutes/seconds runs as an interval in accordance to when HM was restarted. I ha...

I have both cases... some where HostMonitor is running a script that builds an output file and then checks for certain strings in that output file. I have others where another process is building an output file (one time each day) and then HostMonitor just needs to read this file at the same time ea...

Thanks....I'll try this... But I have another question... in the case where another process on the individual server is building the log file (not a HostMonitor script), how can I get HostMonitor to just check the entire file each time rather than expect it to be a file that builds to itself each ti...

Yes - I did all that.

Speaking of setting up the actions in specific orders... it seems like they order themselves alphabetically. Is this correct or are they ordered based on the order they were setup?

Thanks!

Still having trouble picking up text in a file

I have tried your suggestion of using the echo .> //path/file command and that does not seem to help. I have also setup our build script to create a brand new file each day. Still, using the Text Log Test, it does not pick up the string as being in the file. I have several files that I need to searc...

Actions taken in log files

Is it possible to include what actions were taken in the log file? For instance, if we go back through the logs and see that a test failed, we want to be able to see who was contacted and how they were contacted. We have action profiles setup for all of our tests but I can't find the notification in...

More Information

I have also tried the compare files test and this finds when the string is found.

However, there is a possibility that the string I am looking for will be found on multiple lines within the file, so I need to be able to send every line where this text string is found to an email message.

Thanks!

Text file search question

I have a text file that gets created by a script every 10 minutes or so. I want to setup another task that searches this new text file for a specific text string, and then alarm us when the string is found. The text file that is created is called the same thing each time it is created (list.txt), it...

Import and Export Questions

I have several questions about the import/export capabilities. I am running version 4.30. On another post, you mentioned that you were expecting to implement the ability to create folders with an import or other automated method rather than having to create them manually. Has this been implemented? ...
