System Health Monitoring

In addition to system monitoring through event log monitoring , EventSentry also monitors several areas of the operating system. Each of the system health monitoring components listed below can be added to a system health package and assigned to computers or groups:

• Service Monitoring & Controlling
  Be notified when services and/or drivers change their status or when services/drivers are added or removed. Service controlling ensures that selected services are always in a requested state (running, stopped).
  
  
• Disk & Directory Monitoring & History Collection
  Be notified when the available disk space or directory usage is below a certain minimum (absolute or percentage) and detect changes in disk trend usage. You can also collect disk space information in a database and view comprehensive charts (includes disk space charts, disk reports and directory reports) through the web reports.
  
  
• Process Monitoring
  Monitors processes to make sure one or more specified processes are running at all times. EventSentry can also monitor the memory consumption of processes to detect memory leaks of processes.
  
  
• Performance Monitoring: Monitor and/or record any performance counter in database, for more information see Performance Monitoring .
  
  
• Monitoring your systems with custom processes/scripts
  Using the application scheduler you can run your own applications or scripts (e.g. VBScripts, Perl scripts, etc.) on a regular basis (e.g. every minute) to monitor additional aspects of your servers and workstations. You can also use the application scheduler to run any application on a regular schedule (e.g. perform a database backup every night).
  
  
• Software & Hardware Inventory
  Be immediately notified when an application is added or removed from the "Add/Remove Programs" section, and view as well as search installed applications and system hardware through the web reporting interface.
  
  
• Monitoring Autostart registry keys and directories
  By monitoring several registry keys and file system locations (e.g. HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run) EventSentry can immediately notify you when an application registers itself for automatic startup. This feature can help detect spyware and adware and help preserve system resources when unneeded applications register themselves to be launched automatically.
  
  Please note that EventSentry is not an anti-spyware product, however it is an excellent first line of defense. EventSentry will only monitor registry keys and directories that apply to all users.

Web Dashboard

The EventSentry Dashboard shows you the overall health status of one or more servers at a glance with easy to read gauges. The dashboard is also available as a widget that can be placed on your desktop. The dashboard shows you the following information:

• CPU + Memory Utilization
• Average Disk Queue Length
• Current Disk Space Usage
• Heartbeat Status
• General System Information
