Help monitoring web servers? How to do do this?

[Hanky]

Hello,

I have several secure web servers I wish to monitor and I am wondering if someone could please give me an example of how to do it.

All I really need to do is make sure they are responding and that I can access the default home page for each one of the servers (all the servers are identical).

I guess what im after is to say every 5 minutes connect to a URL on the  server and ensure its there, if its not then trigger an alarm.

ie: my URLS are https://ipaddress/admin  So as long as i get to the admin page im happy.

Can anyone suggest how i can do this?

Thanks
Mike

Hello.

Unfortunately, https is not yet supported (oh, it was planed months ago…).
As temporary workaround — you can use either external script (with something like curl https://... | grep "keyword | ... ) or setup something like stunnel and configure sevices in netxms (check Victor's link for that).

However, I'll try to put encryption on a schedule for upcoming 0.2.20.
