Server issues

[blure007]

Today we had a server go down during business hours for our offices outside of the US. I was wondering if there is a way that when the server stops responding or gets an error it would be able to notify us via e-mail, pager or cell, shoot or all 3 for that matter. TIA

What type of application? Are you looking to monitor the server itself or the application that runs on the server (e.g. a web application)?

I used it's predecessor, NetSaint, very succesfully for exactly this sort of thing.

Mainly windows (VPN and Term services) but to be notified when a raid drive failed would be great also.
