[Xymon] BBWIN Central Mode - Auto Reset Services

[Scot Kreienkamp]

Why not set the Windows server to auto restart the service if it stops?

Thanks,

Scot Kreienkamp

If memory serves, the autorestart option only works in local mode and is a specific BBWin feature.

It’s been stated in the past that the philosophy of Xymon is to not automatically fix things; humans should investigate why it stopped and try to fix the issue.

Subject: [Xymon] BBWIN Central Mode - Auto Reset Services

It seems that after switching to central mode on all of our BBWIN clients we have lost the ability to auto restart services.

This would work with the client using a local bbwin.cfg:
<setting name=" Symantec_AntiVirus” value="started" autoreset="true" alarmcolor="red" />

However, now that we have moved to a central config the autoreset doesn’t work.
SVC " Symantec_AntiVirus" startup=automatic status=started  autoreset=true

Is there a certain syntax that needs be used in analysis.cfg?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
Clint Simmons
