3. Specifying the Information Sources

Home  Previous  Next

Once you have specified the resources used, you can indicate to Monitoring Studio the information sources to be monitored. You can for example choose to monitor:

Flat files that contain useful information about your application
LOG files in which your application writes data (traces of the operations)
Web pages if your application provides a web front-end that should be tested
Database queries if your application relies on a database server and some tables contain useful data or procedures that should be tested
SNMP agents if your application provides information through an SNMP agent that can be polled or that sends SNMP traps
Commands or scripts that test the application, giving its status or other useful information
JMX-enabled servers that you want to poll and monitor
