Agents all report Health Service Heartbeat Failure then resolve

[Sven Wells]

I have an interesting issue. All of the agents reporting to one of my 3
Management Servers, will sometimes go into a Health Service Heartbeat Failure
alert and then a minute later resolve. The primary management server that
these agents report into seems fine, except I noticed 3 EventID 31551, about
3 minutes before the 1st of approx. 50 agents reported the Heartbeat Failure
alert. 2 minutes later all the agents resolved and appeared to be
heartbeating again. Example of the Ops Mgr Event Log on the Mgmt Svr.; ie:
10:40:00am EventID 31551, 10:40:56/10:41:01 EventID 31554; 10:41:15am EventID
2115 (several of these); 10:44:32am EventID 21042. 10:45am First heartbeat
failure resolved....all other agents follow suit. The Management Server did
not appear to lose network connectivity, nor can I find anything else wrong
with the mgmt server.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Sven

No idea :) But have you tried raising number of missing heartbeats to
raise heartbeat alert? You can configure it in Administration ->
Settings. Try to put it ex. 6, not default 3.

Hello

I have the exact same issue as you have, did you find an answer to your problem?

If so can you please let me know, I am working on a database performance issue at the moment, however if that were the case then one would imagine all the MS would report this issue rather than just one.

Thanks
Ernest
