In this monitoring type the program periodically executes the VBScript program, specified in the Server properties Dialog and either ensures that the program execution result matches the conditions described on the screenshot below or alerts the Network Administrator otherwise. This check type can be useful for you if you need a custom server monitoring method that can be implemented in the form of a VBScript program:

To use this monitoring method please write down a VBScript program that will perform server availability check routines. Our netmonitor will execute this program on the regular basis and send alerts to you when this program will detect that the server is down.

You should also specify the name of the program's main function in the separate edit box as it is shown on the picture above. If the main function returns the "Success" string value as the function execution result, Alchemy Eye will state that the server is up and running. If the program returnssomething different from the "Success" string value, our netmonitor will state that the server is out of order and use the program's execution result as the error description in the alerts sent to the Network Administrator.
