HostMonitor is a network monitor program. You can create a list of jobs and tests in advance on a set and forget basis. Among the many checks it can do, it can monitor any TCP service, ping a host, retrieve an URL, check the available disk space, check integrity of your files and web site, test your SQL servers, NT services, and much more.It checks network servers at regular intervals and takes pre-defined actions if a device does not respond. It can provide a visual and sound warning, send an E-mail message to a mailbox, pager or mobile phone, execute external programs, restart NT services, reboot local or remote computers, etc.It can generate test result log files and reports and includes a Log Analyzer which can illustrate separate statistical information and show graphs for each tested host.
