1.1.2 Monitoring
A Service (or monitoring service) defines how specific host elements are monitored. A
service can be defined for all hosts or for a list of hosts, depending on the OS (Windows,
Linux or both) and/or on the model. Notification properties are defined for each service.
Services are organized into monitoring categories. For instance, the SystemLoad category
includes the CPU and Memory services for a Windows host.
