Sample Trigger Script for Rebooting the System
The following is an example of a trigger script that will reboot the system (causing a failover) if a
critical IP address cannot be reached or"‘pinged". It should be noted that the script uses string
parsing and will consume a fair amount of CPU resources. It is recommended that you use this
type of script if no other mechanisms are available.
$out = adc::cli("ping 10.0.0.68");
// if the ping fails, the string “0 packets received” is output, so look
for that
if (strstr($out['cli_buf'], "0 packets received")) {
adc::cli(“reboot”);
}
