Any time the database server has a 1-2 second drop in service the Application loses the connection and does not check back to confirm the connection has been reset. We then have to reboot the application server for the application to continue functioning.

1. Is there a way to resolve this?
2. If not can you define the specific services we would need to restart instead of the entire server?
3. Are there processes we can monitor specifically on the application so our monitoring tools could automatically restart the services you define in question 2.

What version are you using?

Just the PageGate Service. It will issue the restart command to the sub-services

The PageGate service itself should be all you would need to monitor on the PageGate server.

To add to support's comments - are you running in APPLICATION mode or SERVICE mode? You SHOULD be running in SERVICE mode

We are running in Service Mode. There are multiple PageGate Services, which one should be restarted? What is the name of the service?

Second, when PageGate is down are specific errors in the error log?

How can we find out which DNS servers is PageGate pointing to in the configuration file?

Thank you

Just the service named PageGate. As I mentioned in the previous post, all other PageGate related services are sub-services under the main PageGate service.

It depends on why the server stopped to begin with. There are a variety of things that could shut the service down, some of which would be recorded in the Windows Event Viewer log, some of which would be recorded in our own logging. If there was a specific error, though, you would find it in the c:\pagegatedata\logs\pagegate.log

What configuration file? If you're just wanting to determine the DNS Servers PageGate has been configured to use, open the PageGate Admin and go to the Connectors - Global - SMTP section.
