Check hosts is a network management tool that monitors host availability and alerts the administrator of network errors through email or sound alerts. It provides continuous monitoring and helps maintain the network uptime.
When network errors occur, Check Hosts takes immediate action. It can alert the network administrator by sending an e-mail or by providing sound alerts, which was extremely useful for urgent situations. This feature allowed us to quickly address any problems that arose and minimize any potential downtime.
If a host does go down, Check Hosts automatically notifies the network administrator of the situation. This is invaluable as it allows the network administrator to troubleshoot the issue and get the relevant resources back up and running as soon as possible. Additionally, Check Hosts writes detailed logs of any errors, which can be saved to disk for future reference. This not only helped with troubleshooting, but also allowed us to see patterns and identify potential issues before they became bigger problems.
Overall, I highly recommend Check Hosts for anyone looking for a reliable and efficient network management tool. Its continuous monitoring capabilities and proactive notifications make it an invaluable resource for any IT team.
