Hi,
we use Acronis Backup. The normal version and the cloud version, which fits perfect to our MSP program.
It would be cool, if we could monitor the agents directly over Pulseway.
Thanks,
Christian.

Hi Paul,
that's a bit complicated...
In the moment I am only working with DELL. Together with the DELL support, I am working for a good solution over iDRAC and the OpenManagement Server Administrator. They report to the Windows Event Logs, and I catch it over Pulseway Event Log Notification.
I am still working on it, so I need some time to give an exact information, but let's say: powersupply, fans and raid should be the most important ones.
Thanks,
Christian. 

Hi Paul,
so this is my solution for a simple single Dell R330. Thanks to the Dell-Support and a Tool called EventLogSourcesView (http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/event_log_sources_view.html).
1. Make sure the server runs with the newest drivers and software.
2. Make sure the iDRAC 8 Express is correctly configured and working. I also configured a fallback e-mail notification over the iDRAC 8 Express.
3. Install the Dell OpenMange Server Administrator and configure it for your needs.
4. In the Pulseway Agent:
4.1. Under System -> Services activate everything with DSM* (e.g. DSM SA Connect Service, DSM SA Data Manager, DSM SA Event Manager, DSM SA Shared Services) ... this should be Dell Services which needs to run!
4.2. Under Notifications -> Services activate everything with DSM* ... like before, so we get a notification if the services are not running.
4.3. Under Notifications -> Event Log -> I created two filters. One for Errors (Critical) and one for Warnings and Audit Failures (Elevated). I look only in the Event Log System, and as Source I take the services from before, but with name (e.g. Server Administrator, dcstor64, dcevt64, omsad).
Today I did some tests, and it looks like it would work without any troubles...
Greetings,
Christian.

Hi,
in the moment everything is in english. We use the Pulseway MSP edition, and out customers are not all very familiar with the english language. For this it would be great to have at least this part of your software translated into different languages.
Thanks,
Christian.
