About monitors
Monitors enable you to constantly monitor the important resources in your system. At the shared resources level
you can monitor the hosts and service processes, and at the partition level you can monitor service instances. For
each monitor you specify the objects you want to monitor, i.e. the hosts, service processes, or service instances,
and the attributes of the objects to be monitor. For each object, different attributes are available for monitoring.
For example, you can monitor the free bytes, start time, stop time, and state of hosts.
Host monitors
Using host monitors, you can monitor the various components of the application, database, web, and services
servers. For each of these servers you can monitor the various attributes like the state of the host, and its start and
stop time. You can configure a single monitor for all the servers or you can configure a different monitor for
each server. Also, while configuring the monitors you can decide if you want to monitor all the attributes or
selective attributes.
