Add or Modify a Device Monitor

Select the appropriate option from the PolyServe Management Console:

• To add a new device monitor, select the server to be associated with

the monitor from the Servers window, right-click, and select Add

Device Monitor (or click the Device icon on the toolbar). Then

configure the device monitor on the New Device Monitor window.

• To update an existing device monitor, select the monitor on the

Servers window, right-click, and select Properties. Then make your

changes on the Device Monitor Properties window.

Device Name: Type the name of the device monitor. You can use up to 32

alphanumeric characters.

NOTE: This field does not appear if you are creating an NTSERVICE

monitor. Instead, you will be asked for the name of the NT service

that you want to monitor.

Application name: Specify the name of the Matrix Server application to

be associated with this device monitor. Matrix Server applications are

used to group related virtual hosts, service monitors, and device

monitors on the Applications tab. If you leave this field blank, Matrix

Server will use the name of the device monitor as the application name.
