    Hi

    I have been trying to configure remote actions on agent host.

    What I am trying to accomplish is to restart a service if it stops responding. The service is called Varnish.

    I have defined an action like this in the nxagentd.conf

    Action = VarnishReload: service varnish restart

    And trying to execute it by calling this on the server:

    Action:VarnishReload

    The netxms server log shows the following

    [11-Jun-2012 20:47:35] *actions* Executing on "78.XX.XXX.XXX": "Action:VarnishReload"

    However, nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?

      Hi!

      You should not prefix action name with "Action:" in action configuration on server side, use just action name, VarnishReload in your case.

      Best regards,
      Victor

        Thanks Victor.

        Figured it out myself a short time after my post.

        I created an action on the console side, hooked it up to a trigger which ran action "varnish.restart".

        The nxconfig file contained the following:

        Action = varnish.restart:/etc/init.d/varnish restart

        Worked like a charm. Just posting my findings as a reference to others that stumble upon this post.

        marking this post as solved.
