Re: Re: Working Version of Net_Monitor - Please Review :)

Hi again Justin Patrin, you wrote:

It should be possible to reset only one service for example.

This is something I can look into. I suppose you might want to forget that a single host/service combination in a monitoring session has returned a non-OK result. However, this seems more rare than clearing the session state altogether to me.

So, e.g. in my monitoring I have put a mail server wich stutter. I mean for some technical reason, this server going down and try to reboot all the time. (unfortunately I recently got this actual case) So on my lovely handy, I get SMS after SMS saying "up" and "down". (unfortunately your package was still not ready, so it's a dream) Then as I know some colleague is handling the stuff, I decide to shut off the alarm, could be only for me or for everybody. When colleague solves the problem, he/she likes to rest the alarm.

As was said before this is the responsibility of the app which is *using* Net_Monitor. There is no package in PEAR which is a "Full solution" in and of itself. The point of these packages is to be re-usable for many applications. You could quite easily add a "subscription" frontend to Net_Monitor which would allow all of this but it doesn't IMHO fit into the package directly as it's a different piece of functionality. I agree, I wanted to mean Net_Monitor should furnish some API for that.

or say, some "util" subfolder It could be a guarantee for the package to have only right parametered stuff. Moreover, I have also PEAR as a toolbox just over that tool named PHP. No "full solution" here but tools. Hmmm.., that should be another QA discussion, also about "commercial tools" à+ -- bertrand Gugger (toggg)
