Hi,
I am going to creating a Stat Central Agent monitor and wondering the best way to determine if the Stat Central Agent is down. It will be a shell script that will execute from the Stat Central Agent server. The way I am thinking to monitor is check if the Stat Central Agent process is running from the operating system. A 2nd check is to query the Stat Merc_Wake table where column agent_type is 'S' and column update_dt has not been updated in the last hour. Will include a 3rd check against the Stat Central Agent log greping for connection errors when the 2nd test fails. The monitor will then trigger an email when it detects those conditions. Has anyone else created a Stat Central Agent monitor? If yes, what conditions do you use to determine if the Stat Central Agent is "Down"? Also let me know any other way I can check the Stat Central Agent.
Let me know.
Thanks. Tom
