AVEVA System Monitor is an application that monitors and manages the performance and availability of the AVEVA System Platform system including the core software, engineered software application(s), and the related hardware and network infrastructure. It is included with System Platform.
System Monitor detects log and reports on system performance issues/errors/trends and monitors key system attributes, and then generates alerts when those attributes exceed defined operational limits.
When an attribute is out of operational limits, the support team (internal, systems integrator, and/or AVEVA Knowledge and Support Center) is notified, and can respond proactively to prevent production interruption or downtime. The goal is to check that your solutions' performance meets and/or exceeds expectations.
System Monitor runs in one of two modes:
-
Basic mode (unlicensed)
-
Full mode (licensed)
System Monitor, when licensed, uses activation-based licensing. Therefore, it requires an AVEVA License Server and an AVEVA License Manager from which a System Monitor license can be acquired.
-
In licensed mode, System Monitor provides FULL monitoring of an unlimited number of machines.
-
If an activated license is not detected (BASIC mode), System Monitor provides license server and license acquisition monitoring for all machines using software that requires activation-based licensing and FULL monitoring for one machine (user-selected).
Note: The System Monitor SSRS reports are not available in the BASIC mode.
