Monitoring Categories (Windows SharePoint Services 2.0)

  • Article

All implemented monitoring rules and counters were prioritized and classified into the following five categories:

  • Fundamental System, Application, and Server Monitoring Monitoring rules that are critical and must be present on the system or server level.

  • Windows SharePoint Services-Specific Service Monitoring Events that track features that are specific to Windows SharePoint Services and its components, including Web Parts.

  • Windows SharePoint Services HTML Transformation and HTML Transformation Server Services Events that monitor the HTML transformation server, an optional component for a Windows SharePoint Services server farm.

  • Windows SharePoint Services URL Monitoring These URL tests help identify whether Windows SharePoint Services sites and administrative features work properly on each front-end Web server.

  • Additional System Monitor Counter Monitoring These System Monitor counters can help system administrators understand the system load and service usage information. The collected data can be further referred to pursue continuous capacity planning.
