Hi
I used to use InternetSeer until I found HM.
A feature of internet seer I really liked was the weekly performance reports that were sent via email.
Is this possible with HM?
TIA
Tracy
Reports emailed?
HostMonitor does not have direct implementation of this function but its possible:
1st method)
- create auxiliary test (e.g. ping 127.0.0.1, this test always will have "alive" status")
- use irregular schedule for the test (e.g. Start test one time per week at Sunday 00:05)
- create alert profile with 2 "good" actions (1st action is "Generate reports", 2nd action is "Send e-mail"), use "Repeat: until status changes" option. Assign this alert profile to the test.
HostMonitor will perform test once per week, create reports and send e-mail. To reset statistical counters you can use options located on Statistics page in the Folder Properties dialog.
2nd method)
- select folder (if you need reports for all folders, select Root folder)
- open Folder Properties dialog
- specify list of reports on Reports page and provide command line to execute some 3rd party command line utility that will send reports by e-mail
- specify time to reset counters on Statistics page and mark "Create reports before reset statistics" option.

Alex
