Hi Catalina,
How are you monitoring for Apache?? I have found that servmon works OK if you do port monitoring or monitoring using your own shellscripts for discovery and status monitoring. I have seen all sorts of quirks getting servmon to work with itmquery. I simply uncommented the line provided for Apache monitoring and it worked.

Have you bounced sermon since editing servmon.conf? I think I have seen very inconsistent behavious as to what actually makes servmon pick up a new servmon.config file. My reading of the docs leads me to believe that I should be able to do Options -> Topology Status Polling and uncheck the Discover New Services button. Then repeat, checking the button again. This generates a Service Polling Options changed trap (it's configured to logOnly but you can see it in trapd.log). If you watch the logfile for servmon in /usr/OV/log/servmon.log, you can see monitors stopped / started but if you have added new active lines to servmon.conf then they don't seem to be picked up. It's like servmon has a cached version of this file. I find I have to bounce servmon to make it pick up any changes in servmon.conf.

Anyone else got any experiences to ahare with this stuff??? Better still, has anyone got any documentation of what goes on in the java bits of servmon / itmquery???

Cheers,
Jane

Hello,

I am running AIX 5.2 Netview 7.1.4

1) on default map, I unmanaged a server. I then rebooted the server and
I get up/down traps from Netview (N) not the agent. Why is this.

2) Also, I am testing service monitor feature. I cant get it too work.
On a window server I stopped Apache (I modified the conf file before
doing this per manual) and I don't get any traps or any indication that
its down. I then tried modifying the snmp config to monitor 1m. It wont
take, I applied I replaced it and it comes back as blank entries. What
am I doing wrong?

I am not running TEC.

Any ideas?

Catalina
