PA Server Monitor Lite

Event Log Monitor

Checks any specified Windows Event Logs (Application, System, Security plus custom event logs) and executes actions you specify if a source you're interested in adds an event to the log.

Mail Server Monitor

Monitor your mail servers (POP3, IMAP & SMTP) and validate that they are running and accepting incoming connections.

Web Page Monitor

Monitor one or many pages on a web site. Checks for positive cases (text that must be found), negative cases (alerts if error text found) and if the page has changed at all. Response times are checked and recorded, and reports can be generated to understand trends.

Dial-Up Connection

Connects or disconnects a Windows Dial-up Connection. Typically this is for servers that are not on the Internet, but need to connect to send alerts.

Execute Script

Similar to the Execute Script monitor, this Action lets you extend the list of available actions via your own script written in VBScript. Many variables from the source monitor are also available for creating rich, situation-specific responses.

Message Box

A simple message box that displays monitor findings. These message boxes are smart: if there are many pending alerts you can easily dismiss them all at once.

Network Message (Net Send)

Sends a message box containing the critical monitor details to every place that you are logged in.

Phone Dialer (DTMF/SMS)

Dials a modem/phone and optionally sends DTMF commands or other commands (to send SMS messages for example). This is typically used by a disconnected server to send an alert over a normal phone line (where the CallerID identifies the server)

Reboot Server

Reboots the server if a monitor has detected a critical system failure.

SNMP Trap

Sends an SNMP Trap with details from the monitor firing the action

Start Service

Sends control messages to the Windows Service Control Manager to start, stop or restart a specified service.

Write to Event Log

Writes monitor details to the Windows Event Log.

Reports are generated in HTML and accessible from within the PA Server Monitor Console application, or from a web browser

Easily see at a glance the state of your server along with system statistics

The All Errors report show all recent errors on all monitors on all servers/devices within a group. This is a good place to quickly get a detailed view of any problems happening on the network.

See a graphical map that contains status indicators that show you at a glance how servers in different geographic regions are doing.

You can create scheduled reports which will get created when you want them, and optionally email the report to a list of recipients. Scheduled report URLs are stable so you can add them to your Favorites list to quickly and easily see the latest results.

Group summary reports can be specified and controlled in a per-group way. In addition, group reports can be automatically emailed to anyone that needs to keep track of the servers.

While a computer is in maintenance mode, PA Server Monitor won't run monitors. It will turn itself back on automatically after the maintenance window expires if you manually entered maintenance mode, or it can automatically enter and leave maintenance mode on a schedule.

Password protect the PA Server Monitor Console, and alert on changes that could affect monitoring.

Group servers together in visual groups to help keep track of them. Group-based status reports are also available.

Paste a list of servers or IP address into a list and let PA Server Monitor inspect and self-configure for each server/device. Or easily copy the configuration from one configured server to one or more other servers.
