Summary of Topic
This article describes how the collector status is determined
Additional Information
The Collector status mechanism works as follows.
Every 5 seconds the Collector asks the Super if there is a task for him.
This requests get saved by the Super.
Every 10 minutes there is a process on the Super that checks how many tasks requests came from Collector in the past 10 minutes.
If there were 0 then the Collector is reported as down.
For the Collector to be seen as up again, there has to be x >= 3 task requests from the Collector within a 5 minute window.
If App server does not hear from the collector, it generates an event (PH_COLLECTOR_DOWN) which triggers a rule and creates an Incident "System Collector Down".
