Resolution
Note: If the Web server to be monitored is a VM that is already licensed, it is included in the license for the vSphere. If it is a physical server you will need an additional license.
1) Please download the Foglight Cartridge for Operating Systems from Support Link
2) Install the cartridge on you server.
Go to: Dashboards | Administration | Cartridges | Cartridge inventory
Install the cartridge by pointing to the unzipped .CAR file for the Operating System you will be using to run the agent (downloaded to a FglAM), not the Operating System you are using on your Web Server.
3) Install the Agent on your FglAM.
Go to dashboards | administration | Agent | Agent hosts.
Select the host you want to use as the monitoring device (it must already have a FglAM installed or it will not appear in this menu).
Click Deploy Agent Package and deploy the agent package to the server the agent package should match the OS of the server you are downloading it to.
Note: For 2003 it will be OS-Cartridge-Agent 2003.... (2008 has a bug and it won't install correctly)
4) Create an agent on that server
Go to dashboards | administration | Agent | Agent hosts
Click Create Agent.
Download the WebMonitor agent
5) Configure the Agent
Go to dashboards | administration | Agent | Agent Status
Select the agent you just created. It will have a type of WebMonitor.
At the Bottom of the screen select Edit Properties.
Click Modify properties for this agent only.
Configure the agent you just installed.
Activate it.
6) Configure the Rules
Go to dashboards | administration | Rules and Notifications | Rule Management
Select OS-webmonitor for the cartridge.
Configure the rules as desired.
