- WebMail Authentications Per Second
- WebMail Current Users
- WebMail User Logons Per Second
- SMTP Bytes Sent Per Second
- SMTP Bytes Received Per Second
- SMTP Bytes Total Per Second
- SMTP Local Queue Length
- SMTP Messages Sent Per Second
- SMTP Messages Received Per Second
- SMTP Average Bytes Per Message
- SMTP Inbound Connections Current
- SMTP Outbound Connections Current
- SMTP Connection Per Second
- Average Delivery Time
- Active Connections
- Active Client Logins
- Active User Count
- RPC Average Latency
- RPC Operations Per Second
- RPC Requests
IIS Monitor
In addition to the HTTP Monitor described above, which indicates the availability of web services, the IIS Monitor is a powerful tool for being notified when Microsoft IIS performance counters exceed your thresholds. The following metrics can be monitored:
- Bytes Sent/sec
- Bytes Received/sec
- Non-Anonymous Users/sec
- Current Connections
- Connection Attempts/sec
- Logon Attempts/sec
- GET Requests/sec
- POST Requests/sec

up.time Agent Monitor
This monitor quickly helps you verify that the up.time server agents are up and running. This way you can rest assured up.time itself is functioning properly and will always be there to monitor all of your servers and applications.
WebLogic Monitor
Use WebLogic monitoring to identify correlations between system performance and the J2EE application server, track end-user and database response times, and a number of other statistics for a WebLogic server. Using the data that the WebLogic monitor collects, you can determine the root cause of the issue by generating a report.
WebSphere Monitor
Stay on top of the performance and health of J2EE/Java applications that are running on a WebSphere server with WebSphere monitoring. Then, use the data that the WebSphere monitor collects to generate a report which gives you a historical view of problems that occur on a WebSphere server.
Advanced and Custom Monitors
Custom Monitor [User Definable]
For situations where the basic built-in up.time monitors are not adequate to monitor special systems, applications and proprietary devices, the Custom Monitor allows you to execute custom scripts that you develop which then trigger specific alerts. A powerful monitor to ensure up.time is monitoring everything critical in your enterprise. Just tell the Custom Monitor where your scripts are located and up.time will execute them for you at the frequency you specify.
Custom with Retained Data Monitor [User Definable]
Works just like the standard Custom Monitor for monitoring any specific custom application or service, with the additional feature of being able to import and store up to 10 data items per probe in the up.time database for historical graphing and reporting. This is a powerful tool for tracking and reporting any metrics in your enterprise that matter to you.
External Check Monitor
Monitoring applications for critical error messages, or any other asynchronous events, and then taking recovery action is easy with the External Monitor. These messages or events are sent to up.time which then triggers the appropriate alerts.
Extend up.time with these Easy Plug-in Monitors
- Expand up.time's standard capabilities - add new service monitors to report on servers, services, and devices
- Implement specialized solutions - plug-in monitor capabilities go beyond those provided by the script-based custom monitors; you can fully integrate plug-in monitors into the up.time UI, defining options that will be used when creating an instance
- Share resources with other customers - all plug-in monitors, whether released by up.time or developed by other up.time customers, will be available on the plug-in monitors portal
Please note: to leverage up.time's plug-in monitors, you must have up.time installed. If you have a current support contact, up.time is free. Existing customers can log in to the uptime Support Portal to access the latest version of up.time.
