HP StorageWorks Clustered File System 3.2.1 Windows Storage Server Edition Administration Guide (February 2006)

Chapter 11: Configure Service Monitors 109
Virtual Host: The service monitor is assigned to this virtual host.
Server Port: HP Clustered File System supplies the default port number
for the service you select. If your service uses a port other than the
default, type that port number here.
Monitor Type: Select the type of service that you want to monitor.
Timeout: The maximum amount of time that the monitor_agent process
will wait for a probe to complete. For most monitors, the default timeout
interval is five seconds. You can use the default setting or specify a new
timeout interval.
Frequency: The interval of time, in seconds, at which the monitor probes
the designated service. You can use the default setting, typically 30
seconds, or enter a new frequency interval.
Script parameters: If you are configuring a HTTP, HTTPS, DNS, or
CUSTOM monitor, you will be asked for some additional parameters.
(The Script Parameters field is unused for the other types of monitors.)
• HTTP and HTTPS. Specify the URL for the service. (For the HTTPS
monitor, the URL should begin with HTTPS.)
When the monitor performs its probe operation, it will attempt to
retrieve the URL from the server, giving a higher level of assurance
that the service is functioning correctly.
