 Contact—Enter the contact information, such as name, email address, and telephone number.
 Username/Password—Enter the username and password of the host administrator.
If the administrator is a domain user, use the domain name\username format.
If the administrator is a local user, use the host name\username or IP address\username
format, or simply use the username.
 Related Application—Click Add. The Select Application window appears. Select the
applications that the IIS server depends on, and click OK. You can view all the dependent
applications of the IIS server in the application topology. When you select dependent
applications for the IIS server, the operator cannot select operating system applications,
including Windows XP, Windows Server, AIX, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, HP-UX, Solaris, Mac OS,
and Linux.
 Detect Application—Enable or disable application detection. Application detection enables
APM to verify connection to the application by using the previous parameter settings, and to
determine whether to add the application monitor based on the verification result. APM adds
the application monitor only when it can connect to the application. If you do not select this
parameter, APM will add the application monitor without verifying the connection.
5. Click OK.
Modifying an IIS server application monitor
When you modify an IIS server application monitor, you can modify all parameters except the IP
address of the IIS server application monitor. If the IP address of the IIS server changes, you must add a
new application monitor for the host. However, the new application monitor cannot inherit the history
data from the previous application monitor.
To modify an IIS server application monitor:
1. Click the Resource tab.
2. Select Application Manager > Application Monitor from the navigation tree.
The application monitor list page displays all application monitors.
3. Click the Modify icon for the IIS server application monitor you want to modify.
The page for modifying an IIS server application monitor appears.
4. Configure the following parameters for the application monitor:
 Name—Enter the application monitor name, which must be unique in APM. HP recommends
that you use the Application name_host IP address format to name the application monitor.
 Description—Enter a description for the application monitor to aid maintenance.
 IP Address—This field cannot be modified.
 Port—Enter the IIS Web service port. The port is 80 by default.
 Polling Interval (min)—Select a polling interval for the application monitor. Available options
include 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 20, and 30. The default polling interval is 5 minutes. A shorter
polling interval provides more accurate real-time data, but requires higher performance.
 Contact—Enter the contact information, such as name, email address, and telephone number.
 Username/Password—Enter the username and password of the host administrator.
If the administrator is a domain user, use the domain name\username format.
If the administrator is a local user, use the host name\username or IP address\username
format, or simply use the username.
