I use ipMonitor for this very task (once by MediaHouse, now it's own
company).  It's at http://www.ipmonitor.com/.  I love this software &
have
it set up to do all sorts of things depending on what I want.  I have
pages
and emails set up, noise alerts that are piped into my office, and I
think
you can even set it up to IM you.  Again - not that you couldn't do this
in
CF, but for $995, in most cases, you can't beat it.  And all the stuff
is
run from the ipMonitor server, so no "agents" have to go on other PCs &
Servers, unless you're doing something I'm not currently doing.

I can't say enough about how this software has made things easier.

  Displaying the status of 85 servers on a web-page is one thing (that
is
  a task for a web application server, i.e. cf), but polling 85 servers
  every 5 mins and taking action if they are not responding properly --
  there better ways to do that. But you can of course do it in CF.

  We are using ServersAlive, but there are a number of other s/w:s
  available (SA, as well as other s/w, have the possibility to output
  web-stuff, often to a custom port). it is a small piece of s/w that
runs
  one one machine and polls a number of servers and services at our
shop,
  and sends me e-mails and text messages(sms) when I need to take
action:

  | Because when you have to monitor 85 servers at one time it is
  | nice to have a one stop shop web page to do it instead of
  | buying 150,000 worth of tools that have to run agents on your
  | severs possibly causing cpu utilization problems, memory
  | leaks etc.....

  | Why would you do that in CF?

  | | Does anyone know of a component or dll built for cf that
  | would allow
  | | one to monitor services on network servers?
