Downtime/ maintenance tracking of devices connected to orchestrator

Help Orchestrator
1

Hi all,
Is it any way to track the time when the machine is down/offline. I know that I can get email notification with info about number of machine went offline and online. My question is more related to SQL db of orchestraotr. If there is no table which would store time of device offline then is it possible to create it?

Hi @Mikolaj_Zielinski,
I think this might be useful for you:

  • SystemJobs.DetectNotRespondingRobots.MaxAlertCount - Enables you to limit the number of alerts that are sent when Robots become unresponsive. This parameter can be useful if your Orchestrator instance deals with a very large number of Robots and most of them become unresponsive often. Please note that it is not displayed in the configuration file by default. For example, if you want to limit the number of alerts you receive for unresponsive Robots to 10, add <add key="SystemJobs.DetectNotRespondingRobots.MaxAlertCount" value="10" /> in the web.config file, under all the other alerts parameters. If you apply this setting, please note that a warning is raised in the Event Viewer when the total number of alerts is higher than that of the one configured, such as: Alerts not published: total number of unresponsive sessions (21) is bigger than configured max allowed (10). .

It’s a part of documentation from here:

@Mikolaj_Zielinski
instead of @Pablito mentioned
how about continuous ping into a text file, I’m not very sure about your requirement but for some of the reasons that can be useful (continues ping most probably not more than 16MB for 24Hours)

ping -t [IP]|Foreach{“{0} - {1}” -f (Get-Date),$_} > c:\ping\test.txt
IP - you can enter your relevant robot IP
