The Metric “SMTP Server - Number of Messages Sent By
Mailer (SMTP) Solaris”enters retry state if the statistic file
/etc/mail/statistics does not exist.
In this case the metric is displayed in the Performance
Viewer with a value of "0".
This behavior occurs because the command used in metric
contains hardcoded 0 values which will be outputted even
if there is no statistic log.
By default all statistic is turned off. To turn statistic on the
administrator must create the statistic file: # touch
/etc/mail/statistic
"SMTP Server - Number of Messages
Sent By Mailer (SMTP) Solaris" metric

1978268When you restart the Altiris Monitor Agent service in the
Services list in Windows, a timeout message can appear.

A timeout message can appear when

1679274Apache 2.2.11 is installed into: /usr/local/apache2. The
log is installed into:
/usr/local/apache2/logs/access_log. However, the
provided Apache 2 Server Log Solaris metric only uses the
following custom path:
/var/apache2/logs/access_log. This path is only
correct for the original Apache server that is provided by
Sun. On Apache 2.2.11 this metric cannot be evaluated and
triggered.
If you have a custom installation of Apache 2.2.11 on a
monitored computer, then you must clone the original
metrics and then update them to use the correct log path.
