HPSIM Notifications

[Brendan_25]

Is there a way of polling for example all 'servers' periodically and sending a msg via smtp to advise all devices are 'UP'? It's one of those peace of mind msgs the boss would like to recieve :) Thanks

In Windows create a batch file. Use MXQUERY to get a list of all non-normal systems and write to a temp file. Use a command line email utility (a google search will get you several) to email the contents of the file. The Windows 'AT' command can schedle it.

Thanks that did the trick, on the same note, is there a way to submit a notification to say a device is back up when it was down? At the moment it tells us a server is in a criticle state but when the issue is resolved , we don't have anything to say "XXX is back up" - We do have the periodic notification working every 3 hours, and this WILL tell us it's back up, but wanted something more instantaneous. Thanks!
