Adding (disk check) services after using config wizard

Post by briangmoore »

Hi all,

I used the Config Wizard to add in my new Exchange server but I notice it didn't add basic checks like CPU, MEMORY, or the option to monitor Disk Usage on C: or any other drive.

I have those services defined on other hosts, is there a "correct" way to add these checks to this Exchange server?


Thanks!

The Exchange Server wizard will setup checks that are specific to Exchange. You can run through the same wizard that you used for your other Windows hosts in order to get the rest of the checks, like disk space and CPU usage. For example, if you're using the NCPA client, you can just run through the NCPA wizard, and point the wizard to your Exchange server.

You can also add the checks manually, if you like, via Configure -> Core Configuration Manager -> Services -> Add. That's a more manual process, however.

It never occurred to me that I could run more than one wizard against a host. That worked great!

Thanks!
