3.5.1 Matrix Server Administration Guide

Chapter 13: Configure Service Monitors 225

Add or Modify a Service Monitor

Adding a service monitor configures Matrix Server monitoring only. It

does not configure the service itself.

To add or update a service monitor, select the appropriate option:

• To add a new service monitor, first select the virtual host for the

monitor on either the Servers or Virtual Hosts window, then right-

click and select Add Service Monitor (or click the Service icon on the

toolbar). Then configure the monitor on the Add Service Monitor

window.

• To modify an existing service monitor, select that monitor on either

the Servers or Virtual Hosts window, right-click, and select Properties.

Then make your changes on the Service Monitor Properties window.

Virtual Host: The service monitor is assigned to this virtual host. If the

virtual host is associated with a Matrix Server application, the service

monitor will also be associated with that application.

Port: Matrix Server 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.
