Monitor Counter

The Monitor Counter object triggers a Policy when a Counter has reached a value that you specify. Each Monitor Counter object monitors one Counter.

Note: Before you can use this object, you must configure a Counter. See Counters for instructions. To modify a counter, use the Modify Counter object.

How it is used

Use the Monitor Counter object to monitor a Counter that counts the number of times that a Policy has attempted to start a service. When that number reaches the number that you configure in the Monitor Counter object, the Monitor Counter object can trigger a Send Email object to notify an administrator to investigate the problem.

Configuration

To configure the Monitor Counter object you need to know which Counter you will be monitoring and the value that will trigger the Policy.
