Re: trouble with responsetime keyword

[Lutz Mader]

Hello Noel,
you are right.

The syntax of your first sample should be right, see
https://mmonit.com/monit/documentation/monit.html#NETWORK-PING-TEST,
but does not fit to the p.y definitions (I think).

Your second sample confuse me, with a look to _checkConnection (in
validate.c) the "Event_post(s, Event_Speed, State_Failed" set the status
always to failed.

The responsetime does not work, you can not use this at the time.

With regards,
Lutz
