Process Availability alerts

Process Availability metrics allow you to monitor a list of processes for specific instances of a specific technology. A process is considered available when running on the server.

The Process Availability metric status is periodically updated every 60 minutes. When a metric status change occurs, the monitoring agent (Insight OS) sends an immediate notification and the status is updated in Alerts within 1 minute.

Functional specification

When you configure Process Availability settings for an instance, a Process Availability metric of the instance is made available. Insight Savvy for OS monitors the availability of instance processes according to the Process Availability settings for the instance. Alerts samples Insight for data that was gathered with a predefined Process Availability metric and sets the metrics alert accordingly. Every change in the Process Availability metric status or content is viewed on the Alerts user interface.

A Process Availability configuration can be defined for all Tier instances as the default configuration (see Instance Association on the Process Availability Settings dialog box). This means that any instance that is recently added to an Tier inherits the Process Availability configuration automatically. In other words, you do not have to manually redefine the configuration for a recently added instance.
