Server Supervisor

Server Supervisor monitors the availability of various network resources, from local workstations to web and database servers with distributed architecture. It checks the status of all resource components in a manner that depends on the resource type and monitoring parameters specified by the administrator. The product is configured and administrated with help of a user-friendly web interface, which makes it easy to access from any location on the network over secure SSL connection. Different users can be granted different access rights according to their roles and tasks. It makes the product useful for people responsible for specific resources.

A flexible system is used to specify each situation when the product users should be notified in real time. This can be done not only on faults, but also when the value of a monitored parameter achieves user specified error or warning level or returns back to normal. This feature provides different levels of sensitivity for the system and can help administrators resolve problems proactively. Notifications are sent by email, SMS and instant messenger services. Server Supervisor can also react to specified events by stopping or starting monitoring activities and executing external applications. For example, a web server can be restarted automatically if its failure is detected. It is also possible to plan and schedule monitoring of each resource according to its real work schedule and disable unneeded activities for off hours and maintenance time.

Server Supervisor has a built-in database to store statistical information about all monitor probes. The product includes a statistics analysis component which is targeted at providing a consolidated and descriptive view on the collected information. While exploring the statistics you can easily switch the view from large scale to short time periods. The product can be scheduled to generate different types of reports on a regular basis and optionally deliver by email.
