Email alert when server services goes down

Troy1 — Tue, 03 Jun 2014 21:06:23 GMT

Hi Everyone

Can you please provide step by step process on how to configure QlikView version 11 to alert a QV Admin when one of QlikView services goes down.

Is there such as way, is it possible.

Is there a third party app that does the same.

You can simply get the list of running qlikview services with

NET START | FIND "Qlikview"

You can do it separately for each service by schedule (every 5 minutes?) and sent a message with command line with vbs

Dim objMail Set objMail = CreateObject("CDO.Message") objMail.From = "Me <Me@Server.com>" objMail.To = "You <You@AnotherServer.com>" objMail.Subject = "That's a mail" objMail.Textbody = "Hello World" objMail.AddAttachment "C:\someFile.ext" ---8<----- You don't need this part if you have an active Outlook [Express] account ----- ' Use an SMTP server objMail.Configuration.Fields.Item _ ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2 ' Name or IP of Remote SMTP Server objMail.Configuration.Fields.Item _ ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = _ "smtp.server.com" ' Server port (typically 25) objMail.Configuration.Fields.Item _ ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") = 25 objMail.Configuration.Fields.Update ----- End of SMTP usage ----->8--- objMail.Send Set objMail=Nothing Wscript.Quit

I use Servers Alive http://www.woodstone.nu/salive/ to monitor services and send email when down. There are a number of other third party tools that do the same thing.

Hi @rwunderlich

I'm looking for solutions that can monitor Qlik services and set alerts in real time if they go down.

Since the solution provided above are paid, I thought maybe you have another interesting techniques or free tools that can handle this ?

Thank you
