Google Cloud monitoring
Hi Do you have plans in your roadmap to include Google Cloud monitoring?
Agentless vs. agent-based server monitoring—which do you prefer?
We are planning to take up "Agentless Server Monitoring" as we have received a fair amount of requests from our customers. We want to offer agentless server monitoring to you as soon as possible, but at the moment, features like bulk agent deployment and IT automation are only available with agent-based monitoring. Although both monitoring types comply with standard security practices, with agentless server monitoring you can eliminate the need to add an agent on every server. With just one probe
nginx support for WordPress plugin
I was reading through your site on how to monitor WordPress. We already have the RUM setup complete. Now I wanted to play with www.site24x7.com/plugins/wordpress-plugin-monitoring.html However, this only seems to support apache, while we are running it under nginx. Is there a way you guys could add nginx support? Also, it assumes mysql is running in the same box, which is not the case. We are using RDS for that.

Please add a back button to monitors when accessed from the NOC view
We run the NOC view in full screen mode in a browser. In NOC view we can click on a monitor to drill in and get more detail. This works great on a touch screen. Unfortunately, there is no way to go back to the NOC view from the monitor without exiting full screen browser mode, so a keyboard is needed to go back to regular mode so that the browsers back button can be pressed. A simple back button on each monitor's screen would be very helpful and allow the NOC view to be run like a kiosk. This obviously
Email Template for UP & Down Status
Dear Team It would be great to have an different Email templates for both UP & Down status. It should be able to configure for "Monitor group , Monitor wise & Alert group wise. Regards
WordPress plugin (with Nginx)
I am running my WordPress on Linux-Nginx-MySQL-PHP stack. When I install Site24's WordPress Monitoring plugin (wordpress.sh), it's require to configure Apache to support statistics. How can I configure this in Nginx? < Location /server-status> SetHandler server-status Order deny,allow Deny from all Allow from 127.0.0.1 ::1 < /Location>
APM: Show database names as well, not just the queries
When using APM, in my case for Jira (Java) and WordPress (PHP) I get valuable information about the database queries performed, but not the database named involved. When running multiple databases on the same server this can get confusing to debug.
APM install and removal needs to be the same as the server agent
The APM install needs to be curl-based just like the regular server agent. The manual steps can introduce errors. It also encourages admins to download the installer once and then use that for many months. It would be smarter for all agent installs to be command-line based like the server agent. That ensures the install is getting the most current version. The removal process for APM should also be as simple as the server agent. This makes all installs and removals follow the same command-line process
IT Automation question
Is it possible to have an IT automation to run if a set threshold on a specific application or service is met? Example, I have an application that has a memory bleed. After the application hits 1GB of ram, I want to close the app and reopen it. Thanks Eric
Linux Patch Notification
Hi, Do you have any solution to identify if a Linux server has patches available for install? We'd like to monitor this and alert our admins. Thanks, David
Tip #18: Monitor your cloud apps efficiently with APM Insight auto scaling
With APM Insight, you can monitor your applications hosted in cloud environments. In general, when an application auto scales, new APM instances gets added automatically (depending on your license limit). But when your application scales down, it still consumes your APM Insight license. In such cases, APM Insight auto scaling comes in handy. Whenever your application scales up, APM Insight checks for any DOWN instances. If there are any, it suspends that monitor and adds the new instance without

Similarly, our Global Benchmark Report helps you analyze and benchmark the availability or response time trends of your various website monitors or monitor groups from multiple global locations during a specified period. To enhance the overall usability and handling of these reports, we have made some modifications to
Process thresholds
Is there a way to use a specific numeric value for a process memory threshold that is not % based? We have a desire to alert when certain processes go above x GB memory usage. The % method is too variable since a systems total memory amount can skew the % meaning.
Infrastructure Map (New)
Since this nice release of the great team: www.site24x7.com/help/infrastructure-maps/index.html it's possible to create your own infrastructure map in Site24x7.

S.M.A.R.T. Support?
It seems that this service does not support basic S.M.A.R.T. monitoring. Is this truly the case or have I missed the option entirely?
Backup & recovery & MySQL cluster monitoring
Hallo, currently we are looking to move from nagios to other SAAS providers, Would be great if you guys can provide a platform where I can get a complete view of my db masters and slaves. It will also be gro if I can manage my entire cluster from site24x7 console itself. We are also in need of backup and complete recovery options for our linux servers. Danke!!!
File Age Check
if there a file age check monitor available, if not, how could be done
Tags
Where can I find documentation on how the new "Tags" feature works? I know I can assign a tag to a monitor, but where else in the system other than the "monitors" list can I use the tags? For example, can I base a monitoring group's members dynamically from tags?

Milestone Markers not popping up comments
Once a milestone marker has been created, it shows the comment icon in the graph, however; there is no way to see what the marker is about unless and Admin goes to the Admin -> Milestones page to check. Would be nice to be able to hover over the milestone comment icon and get a bubble containing the comment to show up so others would know what the marker was added for.
Tip #17: Analyze pageview consumption with Real User Monitoring
Want to gain insight into your Real User Monitoring (RUM) applications' pageviews consumption? You can analyze how many page views are consumed by your individual applications as well as their monthly usage. What's more, you also get an estimate of current month's projected pageview usage based on your applications' page view usage. This helps you forecast whether your pageview consumption will fall within your license limit or if you need to upgrade your plan. So, how do you get details about your
Webinar on setting up and editing Synthetic (Real Browser) checks
I know there is a recorder that does all the things automagically but it would be awesome to be able to understand in more detail how the recorder works as well as how to edit the check once it's created including the script. Things to cover would be, how to find the items you need to use in your check to ensure that the recorder grabbed the correct items. 1.) This is an example script from the recorder after it has been uploaded into Site24x7 (I changed some company info): begin_step("Step - 1 :
Cisco Spark Integration
The Slack Integration works perfectly! We would like to have an equally great integration in Cisco Spark. Unfortunately only a webhook integration with restrictions is possible. Not all parameters can be send and it is not very well formatted.
Chrome and Firefox are distrusting certain SSL Certificates - Find out if your site is affected!
As per the agreement between Google and Symantec to distrust the latter's root certificates, Symantec's SSL certificates issued before June 1st, 2016 will no longer be trusted starting from Google Chrome 66.

Hi, It would be good if I can view the summarization report for all the server in below layout and able to export as PDF.
Increase RDS Aurora Auto Scale polling time
We recently started using Aurora MySQL, including a read replica. We implemented an auto scaling policy. The policy worked successfully, the read replica came on board, offloaded the connections, then as things calmed down, the connections drained and it was removed. All told this process took 30 minutes. Site 24x7 never picked up the auto scaling RDS instance. I contacted support and the RDS polling time is hourly. Unless the auto scaling instance lasts for an hour, at the minimum, it will not be

Tip #16: View APM metrics for specific time periods using APM Insight Performance reports
Where do you look when you want to assess your application's performance over a period of time? Sure, you can always view data from the last hour to the last 24 hours to gather the latest insights. You can also choose a specific date or compare two dates to analyze your application's performance. But what if you want to assess your application's performance over the past three months? Or from July to December of 2017? Where would you look for these metrics? Don't worry - We have this data archived
Plugin Bulk Action and Import
I found a problem when I try to change a profile threshold for many plugins, there's no option to perform bulk association of a threshold profile for plugin monitors, another point is import the plugin csv file, after export it. Please, there's a way to implement this feature?

Will there be an option to push upgrades to agents and custom plugins from the web console? Thanks Eric
FR: FIM
I like that the system can monitor specific files and folders. I would like to see a basic File Integrity Monitor option as well. I might write a PowerShell plugin to accomplish this for now when I have time. Thanks Eric
