Monitors not available at node level
Hi,
I have 5 nodes in a pool, which i need to monitor for SMTP connectivity. These nodes do not reply to icmp or anything other than SMTP.
So i created a SMTP monitor, but noticed that the monitor is not available to assign to a node at the node level. I can only use the monitor on the pool.
The nodes were being marked down becase at the node level they were not responding to ICMP.
So i set the node level i set the monitor to None (since my SMTP one was not available) then made the node inherit the pool's monitor which was SMTP.
So in the node list they all get a little blue unknown square, but in the pool's node lise they are all green.
So is it normal for custom monitors not be to available at the node level?
And is the 'workaround' i did suitable to monitor the pool's nodes?
thanks
