Function Documentation

check_host_still_alive()

int check_host_still_alive	(	kb_t	kb,
		const char *	hostname
	)

Check if the hosts is still alive and set it as dead if not.

Parameters

kb	Host kb where the host is set as dead.

Returns

1 if considered alive, 0 if it is dead. -1 on error or option disabled.
