APM FAQ

Is there a limit to the number of components I can add to an application?
No. You are only limited by the number of components your APM license supports.
Can I use the same application instance name throughout the different type and profile categories?
No. Each application instance name must be unique throughout the APM system.
Why are there no components to choose from when configuring a critical component group with an application instance?
The component of interest may already have its critical property enabled, or the component of interest does not exist within the same list as the critical component group. For example, if the component was inherited rather than added as a unique component.
Why are some Windows services in a stopped state not displayed within the Services Selection dialog when configuring a Service Check (SNMP) component?
Only the Service Check (WMI) component displays both running and stopped Windows services within the dialog.
Why is the Delete command disabled when attempting to delete a component?
The component of interest currently belongs to a critical component group; either the component needs to be removed from said critical component group or the group needs to be deleted prior to deleting the component.
