Monitoring Microsoft servers

[pooja]

Hi 

 

I need to monitor an application (a web application + a pos server)
which will be running on multiple servers, which again will be sitting
on clusters. 

This application will use Microsoft OS, SQL Server and JBoss Appservers,
in a distributed environment. 

 

The idea is to have system, application and network level monitoring.
There are other levels of monitoring but they'll need to be achieved
from within the application. 

 

I read through the FAQs and understood that it is possible to monitor MS
servers through Nagios. But Nagios itself needs to sit on a Linux
machine. This is fine with me. My question is "Is this understanding
right that I will be able to achieve thread-level monitoring using
Nagios in this system?" 

I cud not find an official statement that I will. 

 

Right now, I am not struggling with 'how', but due to the tight
deadline, I cannot spend time on R & D. 

 

Can someone tell me, if Nagios has proven being the same useful tool in
MS environment & on clusters?

 

Thank you

--- Pooja.
