Services Monitoring Tool

The Services monitoring tool displays the status of XMPie services for each XMPie server. If a service stopped running, it is automatically marked with an error status and an email notification is sent to the administrator. There is no warning status for this tool.

To display detailed information about the service, hover over the Status icon. The following tooltip is displayed:
