Subject: server monitoring
I've been tasked to look into acquiring a software package that monitors
servers. I only need to run it on 6 servers, at this time.
It should be able to monitor various services and running apps. (The
issue was prompted because the print spooler on one of our application
servers stopped. This caused a doctor's orders to our Rehab Dept to not
print out. He was not amused.)
Right now I'm trying our Event Sentry but it's a bit clunky and hard to
configure. (Perhaps trying to do too much.)
I'm also looking at Solar Winds product and GFI's product.
