ProActive 24/7 Server Monitoring
In many small businesses, the servers, which are critical to the business, are rarely checked or monitored leaving the potential for problems to develop undetected. Some of the more common faults on a server are a failed hard drive or a failed system fan. Wise businesses have servers with redundant components so in the event of a failure the server continues to function as normal. However, if the failed component is not detected and replaced and the redundant component then fails some weeks or months later the results could be disastrous.
The key to a reliable computer network – one that doesn’t let you down unexpectedly – is to monitor your server constantly for unusual activity and error messages.
Our innovative ProActive Server Monitoring system is unique in that it constantly monitors your server and network 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
If any problems are detected it immediately generates an alert allowing us to investigate and resolve them before they become more serious. In some cases it can even take corrective action automatically and inform us of the action it has taken.
Our Server Monitoring System carries out dozens of checks on your server every five minutes. These checks include:
- Checking status of critical Windows services
- Checking server disk space
- Checking server processor and memory utilisation
- Checking hardware health (if available)
- Checking server error Logs
- Checking server security logs
It also produces statistical graphs showing server performance over the past month. These can be used to monitor long term performance trends allowing you to see how server usage grows over time and to budget for server upgrades.
If you're worried about your server, we offer a unique 150 point, full computer network health check covering all your PCs, network server, backup, firewall, etc. This will highlight any immediate problems with your server as well as the rest of your current network setup as well as indentifying potential concerns that could cause future security issues or reliability problems. We would always carry out a network health check before implementing a 24/7 monitoring solution. Click below for more details.
