Hi All,
I am trying to get multiple instances of same machine started up in the VMWare VCenter client (Cloned machines from the template of one using VMWare.
I am able to successfully add server1 and it shows up correctly in the mmonit screen.
I am getting following error messages in mmonit logs when I try to add server2
2013-12-04 05:24:40 SQLException: ERROR: duplicate key value violates unique constraint "host_monitid_unique"
raised in PostgresqlPreparedStatement_execute at src/db/postgresql/PostgresqlPreparedStatement.c:184 when processing URL /collector
It seems that monit is using something from the system which are not different in the cloned machines and so I am getting above errors and the sever2 is not getting added correctly.
My Question is: What does monit use as unique Id ?
Can we manually provide unique ID for monit ? if yes how ?
