hi all, am very happy with this tool, am using it extensivly to monitor everything including he temprature in our data center.
the one issue i have been having since day one is as follows. if i monitor something (say my mailqueue on a novell mail server, which can only be monitored via snmp) and the server is rebooted, the snmp will stop monitoring it as long as its down, and will sat server is unreachable. but when the server comes back up, the new values are not picked up. and now in plain englishj. when the server comes back up i still see the latest value prior to the reboot. and unless i manually disable and re-enable the itme it will not pick up new values.
i found this to be the case only in some circumstances
