    Paul reacted to Martin Stevnhoved in Maintenance mode   
    Here is a use case.
    We are a few administrators for our serveres.
    We uses Pulseway to monitor and administrate the servers.
    But we have a lot of developers and consultants working on the servers.
    We have tried educating them in using maintenance mode, so we don't get alerts on high cpu, stopped services, closed TCP ports etc.
    That works fine, but often they forget to disable maintenance mode, when they are done.
    We sometimes discovers servers that has been in maintenance mode for days, without we knowing why.
    If the maintenance mode button asks for a note/name, we would have something to indicate why the server is in this mode.
    You could also introduce a "Snooze" button that enters maintenance mode for an hour or so.

    Paul reacted to Jeremy Otten in 4.9 - New Features?   
    Look in the Web UI.. there you can create scopes. And Automation Scripts based on Scopes etc..
    Or run Reports based on the new Scoping ... in the Mobile App you can then run the Reports and download a nice PDF of it.
    Thats what I discovered in 15 minuten of nozing around..

    so the end product will be simple agent locally and managing all settings in the webapp or mobile apps?

    Paul reacted to Jeremy Otten in FEATURE REQUEST : Patch Management   
    Centrally managed.. so can they be saved and re-used on other systems?
    Is there also a helping library with most common commands and/or scripts to use with examples?

    OK.. that could work... i think...
    But still that is alone for Windows updates.. and not for an alert that can wait a few hours and will then be planned to pick up..
    So please think of an postpone feature

    Paul reacted to studiouk in Chat Reply Warning   
    Hi Paul,
    I guess a notification would be great.
    I just means we don't have to hang around in the chat windows or the app and can do other things.
    thanks.

    Paul reacted to Martin Stevnhoved in SetValueForKey unencrypted?   
    Thanks. I have now worked around it. :-)
    Consider it a feature-request. It should be easy to implement a optional boolean parameter.
    Bye,
    Martin

    Paul reacted to Labsy in PCMonitorSrv consuming I/O disk reads   
    Hi Chris,
    did you ever resolve this issue? I have dozen of servers with same symptoms - Pulseway service is top disk I/O Reader:
     

    Typically I have NO plugins installed, and under settings on all servers selected those features:
    SYSTEM --> NETWORK --> Display Ping Response from some IP SYSTEM --> SERVICES --> Selected to manage all Auto-start services SYSTEM --> FILE BROWSER Enabled SYSTEM --> REMOTE DESKTOP Enabled MODULES --> MANAGE --> Active Directory MODULES --> MANAGE --> Exchange MODULES --> MANAGE --> IIS MODULES --> MANAGE --> SQL Server MODULES --> MANAGE --> Windows Server Backup NOTIFICATIONS --> Services NOTIFICATIONS --> Storage NOTIFICATIONS --> Hardware --> CPU temperature NOTIFICATIONS --> SERVER MODULES --> AD (Locked User) NOTIFICATIONS --> SERVER MODULES --> Exchange (Messages Que longer than 20) That's more or less all I have.
    It is hard for me to test, because I would need to disable all features and enable them one by one, reboot server and left it over for a week or so to see results.

    Paul reacted to Dilbert in PageItem with SimpleItemStyle (or custom icons)   
    It would also be great to have more icons in the SimpleItemStyle enumeration. A green check would be nice.

    Paul got a reaction from Dilbert in PageItem with SimpleItemStyle (or custom icons)   
    Hi Dilbert,
    Thank you for your feedback. We plan on supporting custom icons for the API in the future. Great idea .

    Paul reacted to Mark in service monitoring   
    The configuration of the services depends on the operating system and the init daemon (UPSTART, SYSVINIT or SYSTEMD).  Debian Jessie use SYSTEMD as system and service manager. Try to change DaemonType="UPSTART" to DaemonType="SYSTEMD".

    Paul reacted to Martin Stevnhoved in Pulseway Manager - hidden settings   
    Hide Pulseway from Programs and Features:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{FFB50A7D-1792-4D46-8812-9200B1A6B153}]
    "SystemComponent"=dword:00000001
    You could also try to add "ARPSYSTEMCOMPONENT=1" to the commandline string when doing the unattended installation.
    Br, Martin.

    Paul reacted to Dilbert in Best Practice for multiple users   
    Wouldn't it be better to use username and password just for registering the agent with the server and then exchange a key between both systems? This way it qould be easy to move systems between users without changing anything in the agent configuration. Even password changes could be survived by the agent.

    Paul reacted to Martin Stevnhoved in Backup status in SQL Server module   
    It would be nice with a build in option to trigger notifications based on the date since last backup of any databse.
    We are currently using this custom SQL Query i 'msdb':
    SELECT STUFF((SELECT N', ' + name FROM (SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT db.name FROM (SELECT name FROM master.sys.databases WHERE (state = 0) AND (NOT (name IN ('tempdb')))) AS db LEFT OUTER JOIN (SELECT database_name AS name, backup_finish_date AS timestamp FROM dbo.backupset UNION SELECT name, create_date FROM master.sys.databases) AS b ON b.name = db.name GROUP BY db.name HAVING (NOT (1 * ISNULL(STR(ABS(DATEDIFF(hh, GETDATE(), MAX(b.timestamp)))), - 1) BETWEEN 0 AND 48)) ORDER BY db.name) AS [n1] FOR XML PATH(''),TYPE).value('text()[1]','nvarchar(max)'),1,2,N'') AS [Missing] // Martin.
