The Data Director Web Monitor is a tool that lets the user view Data Director jobs and Scheduler logs centrally in a web browser from all Data Directors and Schedulers in the network. The purpose of the tool is to be able to view Data Director host statuses from any device at any time.
The Web Monitor consists of two programs, a website and a Microsoft Windows service. The website displays Scheduler and Data Director job information while the service sends email notifications for errors.
Note: Web Monitor is not in active development. No updates are scheduled for this product. We recommend still using Job Monitor Collection feature in Data Director and collect Monitor data centrally where it can be used for reporting or connected to external monitoring tools.
