Service monitoring involves a probe that returns the status of a service. ActiveXperts Network Monitor monitors services on local- and remote computers by checking if the status equals "Running". If so, the server is running fine, otherwise it's not.
A Service check takes the following parameters:
- Server - the NetBIOS name, DNS name or the IP address of the server you want to monitor;
- Service - The NT/2000/XP service that should be running;
- Must run / Must not run - Determines success or error of the check. If the service should NOT be running, select 'Must not run', otherwise select 'Must run';
- Credentials - If alternate credentials are required to access the remote server, select an alternate account here.
