Is this possible? I have looked everywhere and I'm beginning to admit to being absolutely blind.
I have a custom windows service that I need to monitor. Is this possible?
for anyone needing a clearer answer, from the main APM page, click "APM Settings", then, left column, nearly all the way down you'll see "Find Processes, Services, and Performance Counters".
For me, I used "Windows Services" and it works great. Thanks Jiri
Hello,you can monitor a process based on executable name using "Process Monitor - SNMP" or "Process Monitor - WMI" in "Process and Service Component Monitors". Just enter process name (executable name) in "Process Name" field. Whether to use SNMP or WMI depends on situation. Preferred way is SNMP because it is faster and don't need credentials, but you need SNMP enabled on target system. If you can't have SNMP on Windows machine, you can use WMI.
You can easily create those monitors from "Find Processes, Services and Performance Counters" wizard in APM administration where you just scan target computer for running processes, select processes you want and monitors are generated for you automatically.
Other way is to create application template manually using "Create a new template" link in APM administration and then assign this template to nodes you want.
