Status Monitor Events

The status monitor events are internal ESM events that appear on the event stream. These events can reveal and isolate many different quantity and time-unit issues that bear directly on performance and capacity. There are many possible applications of this system-state data, but those applications must always be interpreted within the context of your particular hardware, software, and network environment, and the deployment choices you have made.

Compare status monitoring events, which provide information about a wide variety of system states, to Audit Events, which report on system activity.

ESM does not provide standard content (such as filters, active channels, reports, query viewers, and so on) on the status monitors, but if you are interested in all /Monitor events, create an active channel and use the condition Device Event Category StartsWith /Monitor, or use a very specific condition, for example, Device Event Category = /Monitor/Asset/TotalCount. You can also use the condition in a query for a report or a query viewer.
