Once you have created the Application Icon, you can specify the resources used by the application to be monitored. You can for example choose to monitor:
Windows services (only available for agents running on Windows systems)
•
File systems or logical disks used by your application
•
Directories where your application runs, where transactional data is stored, where queries are queued, etc.
•
Files that are critical to your application. You can for example check their presence, size, and growth, or simply check that file security is respected
•
Other middleware information provided by:
•
other KMs if your application relies on some middleware software that can be monitored by specific KMs (Oracle, Tuxedo, MSMQ, etc.)
•
Windows performance counters if your application relies on middleware software under Windows and provides perfmon data.
