Service rules

Dashboard Events Settings

Add rule

Service (services installed on this machine)

CPU limit % (empty = off)

Memory limit MB (empty = off)

Breach (s)

Cooldown (s)

Max restarts/hr

Restart timeout (s)

Stuck after (s) (0 = off)

Restarts a service wedged in Starting/Stopping once it stops reporting progress to Windows. A slow but healthy start is never interrupted, however long it takes.

Start the service again if it is found stopped

Saved rules reach the agent within one report cycle (~15s), no restart needed.

Copy these rules to other machines

Applies the rule list shown above to every machine you tick. This is how a fleet of near-identical servers gets configured without opening each one.
