-when failed , do a retest after 5 seconds
-when failed run external prog or do a play sound (does not matter what)

Do you mean you have checked actions setting and system log?
Then what exactly settings do you use and what errors do you see in the log?
Regards

|
|
Yes i looked at ALL logs but nothing is there.
All other tests are going ok...
i ceated a new fresh alert profile.
- add execute external program : ping 1.1.1.1 ( i added this line for waiting at least 5 seconds)
- add check host again
- add play sound option
so this is NOT working
i removed the "ping" (external program) nothing is working any more
no check host again or play sound is working any more
so..finally i removed everything and started with a new fresh alert profile.
did all the same steps but everything is still failing (see above)
i am not able to do more then ONE alert at the time...2 or 3 steps are not functioning
what i want ....
in some cases the memory or cpu is high on my windows machine.
i do not want to alert instandly
i just want to wait 5 seconds and test again
if failed then alert...play sound or what ever
so i want an alert profile that waits for 5 seconds and then test again...if failed then alert
please help me

We do this sort of thing for failed services.
In my alert profile:
1. Start Service, start after 1, repeat 1.
2. Set new test interval, start after 1, repeat 1.
3. Send emial, start after 2, repeat 1.
4. Set new test interval, start after 2, repeat 1.
Description:
On failure attempt to restart service.
Set the test time interval to 2 minutes so the test will check if the service has restarted.
If test still fails, send email and restore normal test inteval.
cheers, Paul |
