Monitor the TM1 Services

Post by strangho »

Hello,

we want monitor the TM1 Services like TM1ExcelService, tm1admsdx64 and the TM1 data bases. Monitor means
"when is the service started or stopped", ...

How can we do that on a Windows 2008 R2 Server?

Thank you and regards,
Heiko

From outside of TM1 - You could use Windows performance monitor to monitor the processes - tm1admsd, tm1sd and tm1excelservice every few seconds (minutes/hours) round the clock and log their Working sets value into a log file. When the services go down, the Windows perfmon will log "blank" for the Working Set values of these processes for those times.

In the past we have used a small .net process that checked the service status. We had it set to email the admins if the service was not running. You could easily have this write out a log file or output to a data base
