A1Monitor allows you to monitor multiple web pages on your web servers. Install A1Monitor on your NT web server and have it reboot your server automatically if the web server has problems. Install A1Monitor on a monitoring PC (console) and have it monitor multiple web servers. A1Monitor monitors the URLs (tries to get the pages) every minute or so (you specify the interval) (more).
If no response is returned 3 times in a row, or specific error text was returned, this is defined as a "URL Failure". When a URL Failure occurs you are notified by email (you can choose up to two email addresses. You can select the "Upon URL failure, shutdown and restart this computer..." checkbox to restart your server if you install A1Monitor on the NT machine where your web server is running. In addition, when a URL failure occurs, you can choose to have a program execute.
Our Review: Regularly attempts to retrieve a web page from a web-server (you can set up multiple servers) in order to determine if the server is functioning correctly. It can be configured to Email the administrator when a server is down, as well as run an executable or batch file to perform some action if the server is down. When installed on the server machine it can be configured to restart the server. Not so useful for monitoring external sites as a proxy server may return an error page, which A1Monitor treats as a successful connection.
