Using availability ping

In 

BMC AMI Ops Monitor for IP

 you can automatically ping (APING) an IP network device to determine its availability and provide device response times.

With the availability ping view, you can do the following:

  • Monitor important devices
  • Provide early detection of network outages
  • Monitor ping response times to predict network problems
  • Trend ping response times to determine periods of the day where problems can exist

The APINGD view provides the detailed view of the entries that are pinged for availability performance.

Note

You can specify whether the availability ping is enabled or disabled at startup by setting the Availability Ping parameter on the MVIP Parms Configuration (MVIPCNFD) view. The Availability Ping parameter is set to ON by default. For more information, see Customizing-after-installation.
