Issue/Introduction

Can the apache probe monitor two different instances on the same server with different ports?

The data source is the host name (or IP) of the server that is hosting Apache and is configured in the profile. There does not seem to be a source override option available in the profile configuration. For example, I have a server myApacheServer01 that has two websites myApacheServer01:8080 and myApacheServer01:82. If I create two profiles, one for each website, all the data gets mashed together because the source for both profiles is myApacheServer01. Even if I separate out the profiles to different robots, because the source is the web server host name, data is combined together.  Can this be handled? Is there a hidden configuration key that can be added to each profile to override the QOS and alarm source?

Environment

• apache v1.70

Resolution

• There is no 'source override' option supported in the apache probe.
