polling period in hobbit
list Engineering
I am experiencing problems with the paging not sending out alerts in time. In looking at the "conn" column, I would assume that if the device has missed 3 poll periods than the seconds that would have elapsed would be 180sec. Being that my poll period I thought was 60 seconds for conn. Here is a host that had an issue lastnight: Service conn on gsoncit-jws-nsc-1 is not OK : Host does not respond to ping System unreachable for 3 poll periods (348 seconds) I looked at the "bbtest" column and here are my stats: Fri Oct 3 07:32:41 2008 bbtest-net version 4.2.0 SSL library : OpenSSL 0.9.8b 04 May 2006 LDAP library: OpenLDAP 20327 Statistics: Hosts total : 1290 Hosts with no tests : 2 Total test count : 1341 Status messages : 1342 Alert status msgs : 0 Transmissions : 14 DNS statistics: # hostnames resolved : 1289 # succesful : 1272 # failed : 17 # calls to dnsresolve : 1341 TCP test statistics: # TCP tests total : 46 # HTTP tests : 1 # Simple TCP tests : 45 # Connection attempts : 46 # bytes written : 386 # bytes read : 6449 TIME SPENT Event Starttime Duration bbtest-net startup 1223033561.966478 - Service definitions loaded 1223033561.971409 0.004931 Tests loaded 1223033577.163407 15.191998 DNS lookups completed 1223033582.170201 5.006794 Test engine setup completed 1223033582.184175 0.013974 TCP tests completed 1223033582.193734 0.009559 PING test completed (1316 hosts) 1223033647.588782 65.395048 PING test results sent 1223033647.598961 0.010179 Test result collection completed 1223033647.599010 0.000049 LDAP test engine setup completed 1223033647.599012 0.000002 LDAP tests executed 1223033647.599014 0.000002 LDAP tests result collection completed 1223033647.599016 0.000002 DNS tests executed 1223033647.600062 0.001046 RPC tests executed 1223033647.713111 0.113049 Test results transmitted 1223033647.770369 0.057258 bbtest-net completed 1223033647.772611 0.002242 TIME TOTAL 85.806133 Anyone know what my be the issue?

I think you will find the interesting stats are: PING test completed (1316 hosts) 1223033647.588782 65.395048 TIME TOTAL 85.806133 So if you set you poll time to 60 seconds and it takes 85 seconds to complete you are going to have issues! Cheers Iain
