Introduction

The application monitoring module performs the task of overload detection and load monitoring. It maintains the latest statistical counters for reports being run, scheduled, response times, and so on and sends email and logs appropriate errors if any statistics exceeds (or falls short of) its configured value.

Cisco Insightv2 components support common standards for server hardware, software monitoring, operation, and maintenance. The same information is viewable via WEB UI as well.

This chapter contains the following sections:

•Performance
