Monitor Event Statuses

When you define a monitor Event and save it to the server, the Event becomes active and the agent starts monitoring. If the agent is down, the Event becomes inactive until the problem is resolved.

The server displays one of the following Event statuses:

Active

Indicates that the Event is active. The agent monitors for the trigger condition.

Not active: Agent down

Indicates that the agent is down or there is a communication problem between the agent and the server. The agent needs to be restarted or the communication problem needs to be resolved.

Not active: <problem reported by the agent>

Indicates that the agent is experiencing a problem. The Status field displays the agent status and the last status message sent by the agent.

Suspended

Indicates that the Event is suspended and needs to be resumed.
