Linux applications on the six Linux servers. Before you add a Linux monitor, you must create an
administrator account that allows SSH login to the Linux server.
Apache applications on Web 1 and Web 2. Before you add an Apache server monitor, you must
modify the Apache configuration file.
MySQL applications on MySQL-M and MySQL-S. Before you add a MySQL monitor, , you must
create an administrator account that allows remote login to the MySQL server.
PHP applications on Web 1 and Web 2.
DNS service application on the DNS server. The DNS server needs to resolve the domain name
www.apm-test.com.
FTP application on the FTP server. Before you add an FTP monitor, you must create an FTP account
that allows login to the FTP server.
In addition, you can add the following application monitors for better network management:
Directory monitor—Monitors the server directories used to save backup files and helps prevent
backup file upload failures due to disk space insufficiency.
Database query monitor—You can add database query monitors for critical databases to detect
query slowdown.
URL monitor—You can add URL application monitors to monitor critical pages, such as the home
page http://www.apm-test.com/index.html and the user login page
http://www.apm-test.com/user/login.php.
