I would suggesting using http URLs for tests rather then port checking. I've seen time and time again where the TCP would establish a socket but never transport data on many many things.

Hi
I have setup http test with contents check for 3-4 server simultaneously for the same host & it worked fine. Now for one host we have more than 80 weblogic servers (per server one process) running and I want to run http test for all. I can't do the ports test as each server must have different port to run & I want to be alerted with server name in the alert itself. If I use ports test then I got alert only for ports service failure and not the alert with server name failure. thoughts? If I want to use contents check for all these then is there a nice way to do it, as all the service can't even accomodate in the one line on bb2.html against specific host. Please suggest.
