URL Monitoring
I am investigating the use of the url monitoring capability within Applications Manager to assess the health of a number of web sites. When checking for specific html content, I keep receiving the failure The String ..... did not appear in the response. If I open the page in a browser the string is contained. Monitoring the address without the string test shows the site as up. Does anybody know of a way within the Applications Manager of reviewing what it believes has been returned? FYI I have checked
Monitor weblogic through ssh tunnel?
Is it possible to monitor Weblogic server through ssh tunnel? I have opened tunnel from appmanager server to weblogic server (like this "ssh -g -L 12344:localhost:WeblogicPort -N WeblogicServerUser@WeblogicServerIp"). Applications Manager finds Weblogic server but can't get jvm status etc. When I try to configure Weblogic monitor to get these statistics in logs I got this kind of message: java.net.ConnectException: javax.naming.CommunicationException [Root exception is java.net.ConnectException:
URL monitoring showing different results for IP and URL
Hi, When I set up two URL monitors, one pointing to the URL (http://www....) an the other one pointing to the same resource but directly by its IP address (http://192....) I get different results. Did anyone came across the same problem and found a solution or a reason why this is happening (under which conditions)? Thanks. Bert Brussels Belgium

User Logoffs off and the service stops
I installed ap manger 6 & the service pac ManageEngine_ApplicationsManager_6_0_0_SAP-1_0.pam under a user who is administrator. The service look like they are configure fine. When I log off or reboot the machine the service is longer available until the user logs in. As a service no one should have to be logged in. Please advise. Anthony

Receive traps?
Is there any way to receive traps on Applications Manager 6? I noticed that you can get values from snmp agent but wouldn't noticed that Applications Manager could receive traps. If it can receive traps please guide me how to do it. Thanks.
Appmanger Windows User name field
The username field in the windows system monitor keeps truncating my username. "SERVERNAME\USERNAME" becomes "SERVERNAME\USERNA" The box is in a domain but uses a local account for monitoring so I need to specify the host to authenticate against. Also, its a bit annoying when you re-edit a monitor that was set to WMI and then it defaults back to SNMP during the edit. Any way to fix this? -H
reports - any way to produce them on a schedule or save them
I think the app manager is fairly feature rich in terms of monitoring. however I can't seem to find a way to 'save' reports, or automatically generate them. Is there *any* plan for a "save as pdf" or scheduler for reports? Also, will there be any feature to limit application groupings to specific users? e.g., user A can see status for application A, while user B only see's B's monitors? thanks brian
Read-only users
With the plans for implementing a detailed user access system in OpManager and ApplicationManager, are there any plans to add 'read-only' users? If so, would 'read-only' users require a full license for access to objects? I ask this as currently we monitor services and servers for clients in our datacenters and they have 'read-only' access to the current monitoring solution (Nagios). With the current pricing structure for OpManager it would be prohibitively expense to replace the current solution.
MySQL stats bug
There is a bug in the query Appmanager is using to pull table data from MySQL monitors. The query is not quoting table names when making the query. Sample below: ------------------- 15:56:31:601 MEAM: MySQL: Error in getting the DB Size for MySQL at 66.232.22.198 running at port 3306 due to Syntax error or access violation message from server: "You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '-yp_yp' at line 1"
Feature request: 3rd party plugins
Are there any plans in the future to allow the query of third party monitring software plugins? More poitedly, Nagios plugins and their NRPE framework. We're busy with our evalution and the main problems we're running in to is the fairly limited application support base. Having an interface to parse Nagios plugin results would provide a huge base of existing monitors and make the software that much more flexible. Currently not supported by AppManager; Qmail queues, PostgreSQL, MySQL replication status,

Creating, monitoring and graphing custom MIBs
I've been struggling for a few hours now trying to get AppManager to create a custom monitor for Qmail queues. I have added two MIBs on the mailserver which return counts for incoming and outgoing mail queues. When querying the MIBs they return the expected values. Adding a custom monitor. I created a cutom monitor (SNMP) for the server and added the MIB, but I never seem to get any data and the monitor appears as incomplete. Is there a comprehensive guide for creating custom monitors and graphing
Installation package on linux
we have installed free edition on linux. all works fine until we want to manage a monitor.

monitoring jboss instances
I'm trying to set up a jboss instance monitor. We're running jboss 3.2.3 on a redhat box. When I set up a monitor I'm told it failed because the service is not running. I'm wondering if this is because it's configured to only respond to specific URL names and not an IP address. Can the monitor be configured to work via a FQDN instead of an IP? Thanks!
Modifying variables in the web-console
Dear All, I am getting started with AdventNet ManageEngine Applications Manager 6 Beta. I'd like to manage a custom SNMP application which exposes some read-write variables. By this time I have found how to read the values of these variables in the web console. Now I'd like to modify them. Is this possible and how can I do it? If not, could you, please, refer me to the products (customizable consoles) that can manage arbitrary SNMP applications. Yours, Zeleny.
