Windows services monitoring on Foglight
majority of our servers are running on VM, vFoglight is very handy on system and resources monitoring. But if I need to monitor the up and down of application processes, without installing any agent. Any suggestions?

Yes, you do need an agent for every host that you want to monitor services but these agents can run remotely meaning you can have multiple WindowsHost agents on a single FglAM host.

Hello Rachel,
Just to calrify, when you say monitoring of up and down application processes do you mean monitoring the Services? f so then you can use HostAgents (which come from Infrastructure cartridge) for that. Important thing to keep in mind is that if you do use HostAgent for your VMs then make sure you disable Host collections (CPU/Disk/Memory/Netowrk) in Host agents.
Sincerely

Hi Prasad,
That means I have to deploy HostAgents for every node that I need to monitor services.
Deploy HostAgent does that mean installing an agent? If yes, I want to avoid this.
THanks
