ICMP Plugin on Windows
Posted:

I have installed the ICMP Plugin in Windows and have added a Platform Service to Ping www.hyperic.com just for testing purposes. I changed the ping program textbox to read C:\Windows\System32\PING.EXE which is the file location on my windows machine. I never get any data collected - here is the error from my agent.log file.
2010-01-05 11:38:14,406 ERROR [pool-1-thread-21] [ExecutableProcess] [../../bundles/agent-4.2.0-1260/pdk/work/scripts/ping/hq-ping, C:\Windows\System32\PING.EXE, -n, 3, www.hyperic.com]: java.io.IOException: CreateProcess: ..\..\bundles\agent-4.2.0-1260\pdk\work\scripts\ping\hq-ping C:\Windows\System32\PING.EXE -n 3 www.hyperic.com error=193
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
obviously the ICMP Plugin in the examples folder is not platform independent. The script hq-ping is written for a Unix environment.
Why did you deploy the ICMP Plugin ? Did you try to use the builtin ping plugin ? It should appear as InetAddress Ping in the list of platform services.
Cheers, Mirko

That seems to at least give me a response time - but the availability still shows as 0%
I just tested it by putting www.yahoo.com as the hostname.

Hi,
any luck to get the plugin working ? Could you please ping a local address, like 127.0.0.1 to check if the plugin works ?
Cheers, Mirko

ICMP isn't written to work in Windows.
however I used InetAddres and am able to work on some formats - but just an IP won't get a response.

I am using the ping-plugin.xml in a Windows setup and it works fine. I used the following configuration: ping c:\windows\system32\ping.exe hostname PRODSRV4 switch -n count 3
I pushed the plugin out under Views, when you are placed on the HQ-agent. Under Views you can find the different plugings.
