  How it Works
 
Sentry-go Plus! is made up of a number of dedicated components, each responsible for an aspect of the monitor.
 
Some, like the auto-response, alerting & web server components are built-in and come free with the base Sentry-go Plus! software while monitoring components are purchased based on the needs of the server being monitored.

As your server's role expands or changes, so can your monitoring solution! Simply add new components or re-assign those you already have across your monitoring environment.
 
Here's how they fit together ...
  
Sentry-go Plus! Windows Monitoring
 
 
  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.

Find out more about web reporting options.

  Console Integration (included free)

Sentry-go Plus! integrates fully with a PC client application known as the Client Console.
 
It can be installed on your desktop PCs & allows monitors to be registered & accessed, alerts to be shown in near real-time, web reports to be accessed and configured, both locally and remotely.

  Monitoring Components


 
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.
