Monitoring server performance

5. Agenda
 Monitoring availability
 Monitoring server performance
 Monitoring virtual server performance
 Monitoring storage server performance
 Script monitoring

6. Monitor Protocol Status Color-code/Severity
Device ICMP/TCP port check Availability, response time,
and packet loss
Attention (1 poll)
Trouble (3 polls)
Critical (5 polls)
Interface SNMP Up/down Interface down
Service TCP port check Up/down Service down
Windows NT
service
WMI Up/down Service down
Process WMI/SNMP/SSH/Telnet Up/down Process down
File/Folder WMI Availability
URL HTTP /HTTPS Availability, response time

7. • ICMP/TCP
• Configuring thresholds for packet loss and response time
• Configuring uplink dependency
Monitoring device availability

8. UP Down
On maintenance On hold
Dependent unavailable Not monitored
Outage historyAvailability statistics
Status

9. Monitoring service availability
TCP service
Windows
service

10. Monitoring processes availability
• Processes up/down status
• Configure threshold for critical process
• Process template

Monitoring website URL
• Monitor any web page URL
• Configure threshold for URL response time
• Configure match content
• Configure proxy details for URLs behind a pr

15. File and folder monitoring
• Monitoring the availability of files and
folders
• Configure thresholds for file/ folder size
• Configure filters to monitor only the
required files
• Perform automatic checks to trigger
alerts when changes occur

16. • Write a script to monitor a specific performance metric for which you can't
find a standard SNMP or WMI monitor
• Any script language that runs on a shell or prompt is supported
o VB script
o Power shell script
o Perl script
o Shell script
o Python script
• Export/import existing script templates
o Download one from ManageEngine
