Alerting Features

 

When a fault or error is detected, the Sentry-go Quick Monitor can respond in a number of ways, either to take automatic action itself or inform you of the problem. Alerts can also be directed to individual administrators or teams using one or more different  methods. 

You can configure the monitor to alert only if an error occurs over a given period of time - repeatedly high CPU usage. And once an error is detected, Sentry-go can also ignore the check for a given time, thus allowing you to investigate and/or resolve the problem.

The following options are available ...

  • Quick Monitor Console.
     
    The Console, freely available with most Sentry-go Quick Monitor allows you to view alerts from all registered Quick Monitors within your environment in chronological order. From here you can also access the latest status & view the  recent alert history etc.

  • Take automatic action in response to a problem.
     
    Restart a service, reboot the server, run a command, application or script.
     

  • Send an alert.
     
    Notify one or more Administrators, the helpdesk or support team using a variety of methods including network message, e-mail or SMS gateway. Quick Monitors can also send alerts to the Quick Monitor Console if it is running on one or more desktops within your environment. 
     

  • Log the information.
     
    In addition to notifying, you can also log faults to a database, file or SysLog server.  
     

  • Daily Summary.
     
    The daily summary report can be sent to any defined Administrator by e-mail. It summarises the previous day's activities, and includes the total alerts triggered split into categories. It is an ideal way to see what's happening on the server overall as well as giving peace of mind when no alerts are being triggered, to confirm all is well.
