Sentry-go Plus! is made up of a number of dedicated components, each responsible
for an aspect of the monitor.

server being monitored.

Simply add new components or re-assign those you already have across your
monitoring environment.
Here's how they fit together ...
|
The Sentry-go Monitoring Service |
This is the core installable service, providing the framework for all monitoring
& other components.
The service runs locally,
thus keeping
network overhead to a minimum.
|
Auto-response & Alerting (included free) |
When monitored faults are detected, this component will either take a
defined action automatically in response, or determine how you should be alerted
to the failure - e.g. based on configured methods and the current day/time etc.
Other options include the logging of errors to a file or database.

Web Reporting (included free) |
Sentry-go Plus! contains an integrated web server built-in, allowing reports
to be generated & displayed on your web browser with ease. Reports are generated
directly from the other components; primary reports can also be published to an
external web server as required.

Standard web reports include recent alerts, current status & current activity. ent status & current activity.
Other reports, which are dependent on the monitoring components give you the
ability to access more detailed information & even control aspects of the server
directly - e.g. accessing print queues, SQL Server transactions, Services & IIf required, the web server can also be disabled if not required.

At the heart of Sentry-go Plus! are the monitoring components, the components
that perform the checks and subsequently determine whether those checks have
passed or failed. With Sentry-go Plus! these are plug and play options, allowing
you to run (and purchase) only the components to need. Once a fault has been
detected, details are logged and other components notified so that further
action can be taken.
Components can be purchased individually or in "packages" to cover popular
server environments such as SQL Server, Microsoft Exchange, IIS, Print Servers
etc.

Accessing Help & Assistance when faults are detected (included free) |
|
|
|
|
Many monitoring solutions stop at problem detection & alerting, but not
Sentry-go Plus! When a fault is detected you have a number of options to choose
from - for example it can be configured to take action itself and/or alert you
to the problem.
Unlike these solutions however, Sentry-go Plus! offers another feature.
Customers have access to Sentry-go Solutions, a web-based resource providing
access to technical information on the primary faults the monitor might detect
along with descriptions & potential resolutions. It also provides links to other
resources on the web.
