Some of the components that are monitored in Windows are:
| CPU Utilization |
Monitor CPU usage - check
if CPUs are running at full capacity or are they being
underutilized. |
| Memory Utilization |
Avoid the problem of your
windows system running out of memory. Get notified when
the memory usage is high (or memory is dangerously low). |
| Disk Utilization |
Maintain a margin of available
disk space. Get notified when the disk space falls below
the margin. You can also run your own programs/scripts
to clear disk clutter when thresholds are crossed. |
| Process Monitoring |
Monitor critical processes
running in your system. Get notified when a particular
process fails. |
| Windows Service Monitoring |
Monitor the critical Windows
Services running in your Windows system. Monitoring is
possible only in WMI mode of monitoring |
| Network Interface Monitoring |
Monitor the health and status
of the network interface. The performance can be monitored
through the following attributes - Input / Output Traffic,
Input / Output Utilization % , Packets received / transmitted
etc.
Monitoring is possible only in SNMP mode of monitoring
|
| Windows
Event Log Monitoring |
Monitor the windows events
generated, if the mode of monitoring is WMI |
| Windows
Performance Counters |
Monitors the windows performance
counters values through WMI |

"We used MOM 2000 and 2005 before ApplicationsManager.
We were not satisfied with the reports that mom produces.
AppManager gives really comprehensive reports about our systems.
We have nearly 70 servers (Microsoft and Tru64 and HPUX, HP
DL and HP Alpha servers) around including branch offices.
We are using Oracle databases. AppManager's Oracle monitor
pages are really good for our Oracle DBAs.
The most important property of AppManager is that there are
no AGENTS anymore. The notifications section is also the important
thing that we use mostly.
Online Support was a great opportunity for us. Thanks for
this real system monitoring tool."

To start with, there are four levels of severity for every attribute ( CPU, Disk space, JVM size etc are known as attributes ) except availability - Unknown, Critical, Warning and Clear. Availability has only two states - Up and Down. ..... read full blog
