Cron job to keep Network Status frequently updated?

[itomic]

Hi all,

 

Is there a cron job that will keep the Network Status reporting automatically frequently updated (every 5 mins)? Because if there is one, it's not jumping out at me.

 

http://docs.whmcs.com/Servers#Status_Monitoring (no mention of cron here).

 

The alternative is to click the 'Check Now >>' button, which kind of defeats the object of the exercise IMHO

 

Supplementary questions:

 

1. Are there any opportunities within WHMCS (or perhaps other modules?) to have alerts sent from WHMCS if certain server limits are tripped? Naturally there are plenty of other monitoring services, tools (incl. WHM itself) that can do this to some degree of another.

 

2. The last column in the Network Status report on the home page of a logged in admin for WHMCS says "% Used". Is this % Used in terms of available storage drive space? If so, I'm seeing results ranging from 0% to 11% for our servers, which definitely does not match reality! What am I missing?

 

Thanks v. much.

This is the % used of the accounts created on the Server setting

So if you have created 100 accounts on the Server setting and 11 accounts for client, that is 11%

The server status page is updated on-demand, it doesnt have a cron job.
