  • Error 6: Could not resolve host: <target> (Xms)

Cause

You can get this Uptime Monitoring error in your Location Fail Log if the monitored hostname is not resolved properly.

Our monitoring locations do not cache DNS results, so they perform fresh DNS queries on every new uptime check of your monitored target.

Fix

It is advised to check up on your nameservers to make sure they are working properly and respond to DNS queries.
