If, on the other hand, you have offloaded polling of some
nodes to an MLM, then you get a fresh status MLM status
trap from the MLM every time it is restarted, or every time
netmon is restarted, just to be sure. That trap is not logged
or displayed by default, but it could be acted on if it is
essential that you get an event for this outage.
Another approach is to have a Problem Nodes smartset
and whenever you restart Netview, run a script against the
members of that smartset and generate an event that would
act as a refresh of sorts. You could do it without the smartset
and just use an nvUtil in your script as well.
Cordially,

Subject: [NV-L] Node Down question.
Background:
During specified windows monitoring on our servers is suppressed due to
backup, restarts etc.
If a "Node Down" alert comes during that time it's lost.
If the server stays down due to some problem we don't know about it.
Question:
Is it possible somehow to get a "Node Down" alert sent everytime a server
is
polled and doesen't answer.
Mvh / Best Regards
