1.2. Events SigmaSystemCenter Can Detect
Monitoring products and components that SigmaSystemCenter can work with and what
they monitor are as follows:
Note: A registry path of Windows OS is different according to whether it is x86 OS or
x64 OS. The registry path in this section is indicated in the x86 OS format. If you are
using x64 OS, substitute "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node" for
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE."
 NEC ESMPRO Manager and NEC ESMPRO Agent
NEC ESMPRO Manager requests NEC ESMPRO Agent on a managed machine
to acquire information by SNMP periodically and if NEC ESMPRO Manager cannot
acquire the information, NEC ESMPRO Manager regards that the managed
machine is down and notifies Machine inaccessible error event to the policy control
processing of SigmaSystemCenter. NEC ESMPRO Manager also can monitor the
threshold of statistical information of each resource and notify events.
NEC ESMPRO Agent always monitor each resource status of a managed machine.
If NEC ESMPRO Agent detects a failure of a resource, it notifies NEC ESMPRO
Manager of the failure. NEC ESMPRO Manager notifies the policy control
processing of SigmaSystemCenter of the failure.
For ESX, if the monitoring module of the HDD access impossible is installed with
NEC ESMPRO Agent on a machine, NEC ESMPRO Agent can detect the "No
response from the server" even when a HDD cannot be accessed.
