Hi Alessandro

 
I had a quick look at our server config, and we use this in analysis.cfg:

 
HOST=hostname

        SVC MSSQLSERVER status=started

        SVC SQLSERVERAGENT status=started

Cheers

Subject: [Xymon] Windows Services Check with Powershell Client

 
Hi folks,

 
i'm trying the stunning new Powershell client from Zak, and i'm already
loving it.

 
But I cannot figure out how to check if a service is running or not.

I'm using last version 2.19 with Xymon 4.3.28-1terabithia.

 
I've successfully set in analysis.cfg PORT and PROC checks, but what about
"svcs"?

 
I've also been able to use the directive "servicecheck" in client-local.cfg
to instruct the powershellclient to restart stopped services but. I'm still
missing the most important (for me) part for windows systems.

 
Please help :)

Thanks in advance, Alessandro
