NT Service

The NT Service monitor checks the status of a service on a Windows machine and attempts a restart of that service. Service restart can only occur if the appropriate administrator permissions exist. Please note, a running Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) service on the specified device is required for this monitor to work.

Provide a unique name and description for the monitor, then configure the following:

Important: If the credentials specified when browsing for a service are not correct or do not have the proper permissions, the connection fails. Additionally, to monitor the service on a remote machine, the monitor must be configured with the correct user name and password and a user account belonging to the administrators group on that machine. Use an account with administrator privileges to browse for services when configuring this monitor.
