Multisystem Monitoring: Page 2 of 2

When specifying monitoring for groups, you need to go through a plethora of options to configure the setting of acceptable thresholds. Then you must define test schedules and actions to take based on the results of each test. The basic monitoring report shows response time and status. More detailed information is available via reports set up in each monitoring report.

You can configure the monitors to perform tests at any second, minute, day or week interval. Success is determined in any number of ways, including content, status codes returned and response time.
