Hi,

I would like to monitor our OWA servers, how can I add them to the view?

Best Regards

HI Rune,

thanks for your post. The OWA role is not a role we have per default available to choose from which does only mean that we do not look for OWA specific performance counters. Suggest a couple of things:

- you can simply integrate these servers as another Skype role (Director). Not nice bute easy and you have full hardware/OS monitoring. You may want to check for specific services and change alerts (e.g. monitoring the OWA web service).
- historically there is always the option to install a Prognosis agent on any 3rd Party Windows/Linux/Unix
- ask your account team to extend Prognosis and integrate OWA as a new role
- create an RFE for our Product team to include that in later versions by default

let us know what option you like

Hi Stefan.

thanks for your reply. We did integrate the OWA pool as a Skype role (Director), and added monitoring for the nost important service (Office Web Apps). It would have been nicer to add OWA as a new role but for now this is working just fine! We will run it like this for a while, and maybe we ask for it to be included in later versions.

Thanks for your assistance solving this for us!

No problem Rune. Thanks for letting us know. I'll drag that feedback towards our Product Management and try if they can comment as well here.
