Does anyone have one of these??
HP 989 running MPE/ix version 7If so, how are you monitoring it, if at all??
I guess it's an HP box running some kind of *nix. That's all I know. Don't even know if there's a C compiler or other tools on it. Blasted thing crashed a couple of times recently and irritated a customer, so I have to get *something* working for it...
Thanks,

What about using the perl client?

Thanks, I'll take a look at that.
Honestly, I don't even know if the box is on a piece of network I can reach, let alone get messages back from. Hopefully I can find out more tonight when I get to work. All I have right now is, it's older than dirt, the client doesn't appear to be planning to upgrade or replace it, and it's a single point of failure that crashed several times last night. Oh, almost forgot, when it dies, that's a severity 1 outage and it's probably our fault...:)

Turns out I can snmpwalk all over that bad boy, so I can at least grab the sysUpTime number from it and flag red if it's been up less than [some number] of seconds. I can ping it too, so I have both conn and uptime columns. I can even see traffic on the tcp interfaces, but I'm not sure if I want to deal with that.
I'm still waiting to hear from our people if there's a C compiler. If there is, it's all good... :)
