Windows Monitor
Introduction
The Windows Monitor O11ySource is used for monitoring the health of Windows servers.
Getting Started
Compatibility
vuSmartMaps supports the monitoring of your Windows operating system's various components including Windows-based servers and their associated services and applications.
Data Collection Method
vuSmartMaps collects health and performance data for Windows server using VuNet's Healthbeat agent. This agent collects data based on the source configuration.
Prerequisites
Inputs for Configuring Data Source
- Windows Server: The IP Address/FQDN of the windows server. This field is the key to identify each server you add here.
- Period (in seconds): How frequently data is gathered. period should be between 60 seconds - 3000 seconds.
Firewall Requirement
To collect data from this O11ySource, ensure the following ports are opened:
| Source IP | Destination IP | Destination Port | Protocol | Direction |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IP address of the Windows server | vuSmartMaps Data Collector End Point | 9092* | TCP | Inbound |
*Before providing the firewall requirements, please update the port based on the customer environment.
Configuring the Target
Healthbeat should be installed and running in the Windows server.
Configuration Steps
Enablethe Windows Monitor O11ySource.- Select the Sources tab and press the
+button to add a new Windows host to be monitored. - Add the required details and then click on
Next. - The following packages will be available for download based on the OS:Download <OS> Healthbeat Installation Binary - Downloads the full Healthbeat package with required configurations for a fresh installationDownload <OS> Healthbeat Update Configuration Binary - Downloads the agent configuration package to update an existing Healthbeat installation
- Download the agent installation or update package, then click
Finishto close the data source window.
