Server Monitoring & Management Services Monitor and manage your applications and servers under enterprise-class monitoring solutions, and protect your business from planned and unplanned downtime.
ITI s Server Monitoring and Management Service is a service relationship between ITI and the customer, in which the customer s Servers, Processes, Services, Ports, Event Logs and different parameters, which are responsible for running the applications and Servers are monitored and managed by the engineers from the Data Center. Server Monitoring and Management Service ensures maximum availability of Servers with optimum performance. The Service does not include procurement, provisioning and AMC of customer Servers, data, Vendor Management, and/ or content. Service Need SERVICE DEFINITION: SERVER MONITORING SERVICES This service will protect business from all common causes of planned and unplanned downtime and will provide enterprise-class monitoring solutions to monitor the customer s IT infrastructure and help in isolating and diagnosing the problem proactively. Service Architecture Central Server/ Monitor Server Reporting Server 100% UP Monitoring Mechanism Alert Resolution Agents for Agent Base Monitoring Monitoring with Agent less Mechanism Information Mail will be sent to customer The diagram above illustrates the working of the Server Monitoring & Management Service. On subscription of this Service by the customer, ITI Data Center enables the monitoring mechanism on the requested Server. Monitoring is handled through: Agent Based Solution Agent Less Solution
Depending on the specific need of the customer, ITI Data Center will recommend the optimum solution for the customer needs. In both cases, the monitored parameters are reported to the Central Monitoring Server. Different parameters like health of the Servers, health of the Process, Services get monitored and a mechanism sends an alert to the NOC on predefined failure/ incident occurrence. Engineers managing the NOC proactively monitor, attend to the reported alerts, and take corrective action.
