Monitoring Server Accessibility
You can monitor whether specific IT devices are alive by having the PX
device continuously ping them. An IT device's successful response to the
ping commands indicates that the IT device is still alive and can be
remotely accessed.
This function is especially useful when you are not located in an area
with Internet connectivity.
Adding IT Devices for Ping Monitoring
PX can monitor the accessibility of any type of IT equipment, such as
database servers, remote authentication servers, power distribution units
(PDUs), and so on.
PX supports monitoring a maximum of 8 devices.
The default ping settings may not be suitable for monitoring devices that
require high connection reliability so it is strongly recommended that you
should adjust the ping settings to meet your own needs.
Tip: To make the PX automatically log, send notifications or perform
other actions for any server accessibility or inaccessibility events, you
can create event rules associated with server monitoring. See
Event
Rules and Actions (on page 213).
To add IT equipment for ping monitoring:
1. Choose Device Settings > Server Reachability. The Server
Reachability dialog appears.
