EasyHA monitors your systems/DBs/servers to ensure systems, applications, services, and business processes are functioning properly. In the event of a failure, EasyHA can alert technical staff of the problem, allowing them to begin remediation processes before outages affect business processes, end-users, or customers. With EasyHA you will never be left having to explain why an unseen infrastructure outage hurt your organization’s bottom line.

EasyHA includes cloud and mobile app, so you can check the status of your sytems/applications anytime anywhere. 

In this section you can learn the meaning of some terms commonly used in EasyHA.

host

- a networked device that you want to monitor, with IP/DNS.

item

- a particular piece of data that you want to receive off of a host, a metric of data.

trigger

- a logical expression that defines a problem threshold and is used to “evaluate” data received in items

When received data are above/below the threshold, triggers go from 'Ok' into a 'Problem' state. When received data are below/above the threshold, triggers stay in/return to an 'Ok' state.

event

- a single occurrence of something that deserves attention such as a trigger changing state or a discovery/agent auto-registration taking place

action

- a predefined means of reacting to an event.

An action consists of operations (e.g. sending a notification) and conditions (when the operation is carried out)

media

- a means of delivering notifications; delivery channel

notification

- a message about some event sent to a user via the chosen media channel

remote command

- a pre-defined command that is automatically executed on a monitored host upon some condition

template

- a set of entities (items, triggers, graphs, screens, applications, low-level discovery rules) ready to be applied to one or several hosts

The job of templates is to speed up the deployment of monitoring tasks on a host; also to make it easier to apply mass changes to monitoring tasks. Templates are linked directly to individual hosts.

application

EasyHA consists of several major software components, the responsibilities of which are outlined below.

EasyHA Server

This is the centre of the EasyHA software. The Server can remotely check networked services (for example web servers) using simple service checks, and perform other agent-less monitoring such as CPU utilization on Linux, but it is also the central component to which the clients (browser or Win32-EasyHA-Client) will check instant information and statistics.

The Server is the central repository in which all configuration, statistical and operational data are stored, and it is the entity in the EasyHA software that will actively alert administrators when problems arise in any of the monitored systems.

In order to allow easy access to the monitoring data and the configuration of EasyHA from anywhere and from any platform, the Web-based Interface is provided.

EasyHA Win32 Client

The web interface cannot provide instant message function. You may want to receive the notification as soon as possible. And addition to configure EasyHA to send text SMS, you can also install the Win32 EasyHA Client. When trigger fired, the icon in tray will be blinking.

EasyHA Cloud

Your EasyHA server is running in LAN of your company. Generally speaking, it is difficult to access the EasyHA server behind firewall from internet. So we provide EasyHA Cloud service, you can synchronize the monitoring data to EasyHA Cloud, and then you can access the data anywhere. To access EasyHA Cloud, you can use browser such IE, and the better choice is EasyHA App.

EasyHA App for EasyHA Cloud

With EasyHA App, you can check the status of your servers/applications anywhere through your smart phone. What is more, you will receive notification when your predefined trigger is fired.
