Testing Monitoring Application

Hi there,

I'm a newbie to using Solaris. I need to test an existing application that is monitoring applications/processes of its health and state. My task is to see if the application is doing the monitoring correctly. Everything is very new to me... please suggest some ideas of how I can start to test this out.

Thank you very much.

I guess you are talking about monitoring the monitoring script.

You can log the monitoring process to a flat file with timestamp.
This way, you can check the log to see if the monitoring script is running

Thank you for your suggestion. :smiley:
