That's the one!

I would too, except it makes no sense for our network. Why would all 4
of our monitored SMTP servers look the same? It's kinda strange if you
ask me.

Is this what you mean? (see attached jpg file)

I was curious about this too but put it down to changing network load.

No, I'm talking about the trends reporting, the RRDTOOL stuff I guess.
It forms diamond like responses on the 48 hour graph. I get like 4 and
1/2 of them in one page sometimes.

Are you referring to the icon that comes up on the web display?  That
is

normal for tests that have been green for more than one day.  They
change from the three-eyed-smiley to a diamond.

Hey guys,


I'm noticing that a lot of my external SMTP tests seems to be
forming
a
diamond like pattern when tests are being done. This isn't just for
one
server, but for pretty much all of my SMTP tests that are being done
on
different servers, including local LAN servers. Anyone know why this
is
happening?
