Tool for sound option HostMonitor

Post by jordydk »

We have two locations within our company and would like to use Hostmonitor at both locations.

We have arranged this so far through a website that shows the fbad/fwarn/etc.

In the past, we are used to being alerted by a sound when a trigger occurs.

Now we have solved it in a dirty way at one branch by starting RCC in the background and using the Perform "Play sound" action option.

We cannot start RCC at the other location because we only have 1 license.

Is there a possibility to play a sound at the other location without purchasing an extra license from RCC because we only use the sound function and nothing else from RCC because there is only 1 administrator who knows how Hostmonitor works.

Hopefully there is a solution for this.

You may use web interface, Quick Log page offers several options (use popup menu, right mouse click on [QuickLog] tab)
- Sound off
- Sound once
- Sound continuously

I have a other question about the sound. In de RCC you can give also a sound when the error is back to "good". Is there a way that you can play a sound in the quick log when the error is back to normal.
