What is Monitoring Agent?
The Monitoring Manager allows you to create, run and monitor a specific business process as a “test agents at a predefined time and interval.” Test agents can be scheduled to periodically test your services by running predefined “test cases” or “test groups” in constant intervals and determining if the tests were run successfully. This tool logs the data from these tests for later review including the time it took to run the test. In addition, alerts can be set to get an email if a test does not pass successfully, so the administrator can check on the system to allow proactive analysis of potential system errors.
