Scan error notifications?

[jim_barr]

Lansweeper currently scans multiple subnets, one of which is an "infrastructure" subnet for network switches and access points. Is it possible for Lansweeper to scan at a somewhat frequent interval (say, every 15-30 minutes or whatever) and if a device fails to scan, send an email notification?

Possible: Yes

Implementation wise it's not as straight forward. You need a report that shows all assets for which the "Last tried" is in the past 15-30 minutes (depending on your interval) and only shows assets from your infrastructure subnet.
You can then schedule this report to be emailed every 15-30 minutes. Reports are only emailed when they are not empty.

This way if any asset fails to get scanned, you will get an email with the report including that device. You can use the report below as a starting point. You might have to adjust the interval (set to 30min in the report) and add the criteria to only select your subnet.
