Situations like what exactly? When a server is rebooted? Or when a server
stops communicating? Can you explain what symptoms? What is a "director"?
Sorry, I'm not familiar with the Solarwinds product.
Out of the box, Xymon can detect a few different types of communication
issues (eg ping checks, TCP port responses) as well as monitoring logfiles
for messages that indicate trouble. Furthermore, Xymon is highly
extensible, so if you can write a script to perform a test for your
problem, you can turn it into a message for Xymon to display, and
optionally alarm via email or other means.
Cheers

We have no monitoring in place other than solarwinds which monitors
heartbeats. Essentially we have a few application servers that are randomly
not communicating with the director and were having to reboot them. Seeing
if your application would alert on situations like this in an email
notification format?
