OnWeb vs my fav. Oncockpit, where's the ALERTS!
FIrst I installed and used "onprobe"/"oncockpit", very nice, we had lots of alerts going to tell us important things like dbspace full, logs full, informix down... etc Then came informix IDS 7.30. They took those binaries away. I played with IECC, just starting to get it going, and informix says "that is going away" try on web. I installed OnWeb, easy and nice to setup... but no DAMN ALERTS. Can someone tell me how to setup alerts and thresholds with OnWeb to let me know when dbspaces get full, logs are full, informix went offline..... ???? Doesn't anyone care about these things? I dont need a web way to administer informix, I need tools for event management. Informix is just forcing us to buy compuware's ecotools or bmc patrol.. Does anyone care to share how they handle events from informix,.. do you rely on the "alarm.sh" program only ? Steve Stubbe

No. I have an additional monitor that uses DBD::Informix.
