disable ping checks

sdb_2 — Thu, 22 Apr 2010 08:08:39 GMT

Hi,

Does anyone know if it's possible to disable the ping checks in hpsim? We already do those checks with another system, so we are looking for a way to disable this in hpsim....

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks.

Options -> Events -> Status Change Event Settings
Uncheck Enable creation of system status change events.

Thanks. Is this setting going to cause any health-status not being displayed properly? Or is this only meant to enable/disable the hardware status polling (ping)?

Health status will still properly work, it gets collected with a Task called Hardware Status Polling for Servers.

Ok I'll try this and keep it watched for a few days to check everything else keeps on working.

Always a good idea. Have a SIM-eventless-weekend and thanks for the points! :-)
