What are other webmasters using for remote monitoring?
I need to find something that I can run on a remote system to send a notification to my cellphone if my webserver is unavailable for over 5 minutes. I am asking because my webserver failed to restart after the logs rolled at 4am, and I didn't notice until 10am.
The culprit was a typo I left in httpd.conf after testing some settings last night.
I am not sure if anyone has pulled my links due to the outage. Will most LL owners simply pull the links if they notice an outage, or do they blacklist the domain as well?
Should I post an outage notification after the fact? And if so, should it be in a forum on gg&j or via e-mail?
Any thoughts, advice, etc. is welcome..
