List of External Monitors

In environments where multiple monitoring solutions - one each for every component silo - are deployed, you may want to seamlessly integrate the eG monitoring console with a few or all of these solutions, so as to enable effective investigation and swift identification of the source of problems with the associated components.

Using the eG administrative interface, you can now configure the URLs for launching third-party management consoles from the eG monitoring console. Each such URL is called an External Monitor. By associating these monitors with specific component silos, you can enable users to the eG monitoring console to quickly drill down to third-party consoles whenever the associated components experience performance issues, use the expertise of the third-party tools to analyze these issues, and thus accurately diagnose their root-cause.

To view the list of external monitors that are added, do the following:

  • To access this page, click on the icon available in the Admin tab. Then, select the External Monitors option in the Miscellaneous tile.
