Quickly discover server and network devices to be monitored

10-minute Deployment, Auto Discovery
Installation is fast and simple. Thanks to auto discovery, identifying the entities to monitor is quick. There is no need to enter systems manually. Use Longitude to scan for systems and devices present on the network. And, Longitude scales with ease and is equally adept at handling a few servers and network devices or many.

Agentless Multiplatform Monitoring and Management
Heroix Longitude monitors and alerts on the availability and performance of mission-critical applications, Windows, Linux, UNIX, and VMware systems, and SNMP-based network devices, without requiring any software installation on the monitored systems. Moreover, Longitude is self-contained, with no prerequisites for layered software.

Prepackaged Monitoring Solutions for Database, Web and Messaging Applications
Out of the box, benefit from monitoring solutions for Windows, Linux, Unix, and VMware plus solutions for Web, database, and messaging servers; network and infrastructure components; common transactions; and usage trends. Predefined default thresholds take the guesswork out of getting started. Refining solutions to support your specific business processes is easy; settings are readily customizable through the Web UI — on-the-fly.

Virtual Machine Monitoring
The broad scope of prepackaged monitoring solutions includes VMware monitoring. Automatically collect physical and virtual performance metrics for VMs, hosts, resource pools, clusters, datastores and datacenters. Consolidate alarms generated by VMware for unified alerting and reporting. Track the impact of virtual machines on the physical hardware and optionally take corrective action on any of the performance metrics. A key feature in Longitude is capacity planning, where users can perform “What if” analyses to determine where and how potential changes would affect operations.

Event Monitor
The Event Monitor serves as a powerful, easy-to-use central monitoring station for Longitude, allowing you to view events and diagnose issues throughout your entire computing environment. The dashboard lets you drill down to troubleshoot in real-time, modify performance thresholds, and enable notification and corrective actions from a single interface without having to navigate away from the display. In addition to alerting you on problems, the Event Monitor helps identify problems quickly and easily to see which conditions are contributing to the problem. It presents events grouped by either device or application, and can display additional information collected from Windows Event Logs, Syslogs, SNMP Traps and SLAs in an intuitive dashboard.

Automated Alerts and Actions
Automatically receive email alerts, generate SNMP traps, send SMS pages, and execute corrective action based on specified policies. Longitude provides meaningful alerts and initiates corrective action. Instruct Longitude to invoke a system or application diagnostic command(s) or script(s), evaluate the output, and alert you to abnormal results.

Real Time Performance Monitor
The Performance Monitor is a real-time display facility that provides up-to-the-minute information on the performance of servers and network devices. The dashboard allows the user to quickly access and analyze the health and efficiency of Windows, Linux, Unix, VMware, and network devices. The pre-configured displays target key performance indicators, help determine bottlenecks, and fine-tune device and application performance.
