I'm trying to configure monitoring for windows servers so that I get alerts when ports such as 80 and 443 are not available. I understand that I have to set the servers to central mode and have done so on 1 client server for a test as below.
<!-- bbwin mode local or central --> <setting name="mode" value="central" /> <setting name="configclass" value="win32" />
My hobbit-client.cfg file has the following:
HOST=xxxxx.co.uk
PROC BBWin.exe 1
PORT "LOCAL=%(:80|:443)" state=LISTEN TEXT=http and https
Unfortunately this is not working! I get white entries on the main status page with "No process to check" for proc and just a "-" for ports. I am getting the "Client Data" available for proc with current date and time, but the status of the actual page is reading as last updated back in November when I first changed the bbwin mode.
Any ideas where I am going wrong?
(We have a solaris server being monitored from the same box and using the same config file and both proc and ports are working fine for this.)
Thanks,
John
