I've got an existing windows server that I want to start monitoring a windows service. In the past when I tried this running the config wizard, it would create a new host, obviously something I am doing wrong.

Could you point me to some documentation or the procedure for adding a windows service to a currently monitored host?

The host configuration needs to exist before you can monitor a service. If the host already exists, make sure that when you run the wizard you use the same hostname and ip that the current host object is configured with.

ahh, that's where I was messing up, I was changing the server names.

Got it, thanks. You can close this one out too.
