Alert service host/down? (Beginner)

Hello

This seems to be a really trivial question, but I can't understand how do.

I'm trying to set up an alert that sends me an email whenever a host or a service is down. I understand that the principles of alerts and already set up some alerts successfully, who did send e-mails. But I can't find the option on the alert definition page that says 'whenever the host is unreachable"or similar. I found the 'availability' metrics, but it's not exactly what I'm looking for, because it does not always fire (availability can not change instantly, when the host goes down).

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hello

Alert based on the metric of availability is the way to do it.  The delay is only long enough for the hq to get Server account that the agent has not verified.

The other way to do would be to have a central HQ agent who performs a ping on the host, and if it fails, it will be reported as unavailable immediately.

    Can someone give an explanation of how it works.

    It seems to be a less costly and useful for the small depolyments solution.

  • vRealize Operation Manager 6.0 - Snooze alert for host in maintenance

    Hello

    I was wondering if somebody encounter this situation or have a solution for this. In the previous version of vCOPS by default when a host was in interview he disappeared from vCops and does not generate any alerts. With the new version, this behavior is no longer present. Since we are currently plug our hosts, we get a bunch of alerts for guests who do not have loads of work on them.

    If anyone has a way for us to get this functionality, let me know! Looking into this at the same time.

    Thank you!

    Finally I ended up adding a definition of the symptom in the alert

    Where this can be useful for someone else

    Alert definition: host has lost the connection to vCenter Server

    Creates a new definition of the symptom

    Type = property

    Name = host State not in maintenance

    Length of ownership. State of maintenance. = inMaintenance

  • Had a host down with the vCops server. It queue messaging?

    We had to restart a crowd last night that had vcops on this subject. Is he queued emails he sent: I do not think that I should have gotten, but do not know. Or he picks up just where it would do when it comes back online.

    If vC Ops doesn't, may not get new data to deal with, so there is no new e-mail to the queue. However, when vC Ops comes back online, it will make data collection and alert off the coast of these data collected... for example, a host loses storage and vC Ops back upward on another host... vC Ops will pick up this event host on the next data collections and the kickoff of a failure alarm type.

    If there was a blip in the vC services Ops, you can get an alarm of the administrative system, but if it's a full reboot may not generate an alarm.

  • Cryptography and process services host has stopped

    Vista SP1 home

    Recently a message began to appear as a host process has stopped working and would be closed. Wasn't sure that he caused and could not think of any changes that would have made, but continued to use my PC.

    Recently, I tried to upgrade Microsoft Security Essentials, but the installation failed. I also noticed that before the host process error message popping up, a message indicating that encryption services could not start blown upward.

    Crypto is set to automatic in the services and the failure of attempts to start it manually with the same messages as described above. I tried all the methods in the microsoft article 822798 on how to fix if the programs do not install or update properly.

    I don't know if that makes a difference, but in microsoft article one of the methods lists the DLL re-register as initpki.ddll and slbcsp.dll. When I tried, some registered DLL appear to be missing. I searched the web and seen a post that some of the dll (like initpki) were not in Vista still.

    I prefer not to do a clean reinstall, so is anyway to diagnose and solve the problem?

    Hi Rich61080,

    ·        What is you receive the exact error message?

    Step 1

    I suggest that you restart the cryptographic service on your computer and check to see if it helps you solve the problem. To stop and restart the service, follow these steps:

    a. restart the computer in safe mode (to restart in mode safe keep pressing F8 on reboot).

    b. click on the start menu and in the search box start type CMD.

    c. in the list right click on CMD, and then click Run as administrator.

    d. at the command prompt, type net stop cryptsvc.

    e. at the command prompt, type net start cryptsvc, press ENTER.

    Following the steps above should help you to restart cryptographic services.

    Step 2

    Make sure that the dependency for the cryptographic services service is started. To open the cryptographic services and addiction services follow the steps below:

    a. Click Start.

    b in the start search box type services.msc and press to enter.

    (c) in the services window, double-click cryptographic services.

    d. on the next window, click the Dependencies tab.

    e. ensure that the dependency services are started and set to automatic.

    Step 3

    If the steps above do not help, you can runSystem File Checker (SFC) analyze and check if it can help solve you the problem of the number of text to speech.

    To run a SFC Scan, follow these steps:

    a. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.

    b. right click on cmd in the list programs, and then click Run as administrator.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue

    c. at the command prompts, the following line and press ENTER: sfc/scannow

    Access the link below to learn more about the execution of the System File Checker:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/936212

    Alsoyou can open Event Viewer and check if there is other significant error messages/codes and post back. See the link below for more details:

    What are the information contained in the logs of the event (Event Viewer)?

  • With the help of the ESA 3300 with email service hosted

    Is it possible ti use the ESA 3300 with a mail provider hosted?  I wish our incoming emails cleaned by the unit before being delivered.

    Because I'm not hosting mail server myself, I'm a little uncertain about the configuration of the ESA, and, what to ask my email service provider to do at their end.

    Any help you can give me to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!

    Jason

    Yes, you would set your MX record to point to Email Security and then select Email Security to deliver to your provider.

    Article 3 for the destination would use this option.

    This is an MTA. Itinerary by e-mail using SmartHost to the destination server:

    If you had an internal server where would this IP or hostname of server.

    It also applies if your mail server is hosted or external.

    Simply specify you the host or IP address to send emails at once scanned.
