1 Overview
Policies are created and edited in an application. A policy is instructions for the monitoring of something from a computer. Policies are deployed to a node using groups.
2 Policy types
There are currently 14 different policy types. Each policy is targeted to monitor a different aspect of a server.
- Command execution
- Disk / Filesystem
- Event
- HTTP response
- Log file
- Ping response
- Port availability
- Process performance
- Service status
- SNMP policy
- SNMP Trap recipient
- Veloopti agent health
- Windows performance library
- CI Metric thresholds
3 Deploying a policy to a server
Policies are deployed to a server by adding it to a policy group. The policy group must also be linked to a node group that contains the server that the policy is to be deployed to.
One or more policies can be added to a policy group. A policy in a policy group is a member of the group. In order for the policies in the policy group to be deployed to the nodes in a node group the policy group must be linked to the node group. A policy group can be linked to one or more node groups. All nodes in the node group that have a policy group linked to it can have the policies deployed to them.
A policy group is located in an application and is not able to be linked to a node group outside of the application. A policy cannot be directly deployed to a node.
