  1. How Do You Monitor A Sync Host?

    in Sync General Discussion

    Posted

    Well, you could potentially utilize the get_folder_peers call of the Sync API to regularly monitor the number of peers connected from your own program/script, and if this number drops to zero it's a safe assumption that the other device(s) you're syncing with have either gone offline or Sync isn't running on them

     

    Never knew this existed - thanks!

     

    Regardless of the function I try, the NAS returns "invalid request".  Even for something as simple as  http://192.168.x.x:8888/api?method=get_os    :( 

  2. How Do You Monitor A Sync Host?

    in Sync General Discussion

    Have 2 hosts on my LAN (1-windows, 1-iomega NAS).  Often the clients will only see the windows host until the Sync service on the NAS is restarted.  As a result want to configure a monitoring tool to alert when either host goes offline.  

     

    Currently have limited monitoring by using telnet (each host has a static - manually configured port) to check for a connection.  However when the NAS stops working, telnet continues to connect making this check ineffective.

     

    Suggestions?
