My 'ping test completed' goes through the roof if my #trace tag is in
the monitoring field and the host is down...

 

It keeps trying to trace route and it times out..

 

Never found a fix..

Has anyone else encountered issues like this?  Has anyone else
encountered any similar issues with all the conn tests going haywire?

I figured I'd also post this information while "bumping" the email:

I've been getting a lot of these recently.  A lot of the time I'll get a
good 3/4 of the hosts I'm monitoring like this, other days it is just
one or two.  I can't seem to find any pattern to it.  I'm very confident
it isn't network related as it happens to the first entry, Hobbit
server.  I just can't imagine why it would have issues getting to
127.0.0.1!

I was also under the impression that the ping test is done every 60s or
120s so these tests just can't be true positive results. 

Poking around I also found that the test to my hobbit server (this is
127.0.0.1 mind you) went up in early December.

Looking for any input at this point!
