How does Auvik detect hardware problems before they cause downtime?

Auvik continuously monitors critical server components like CPU modules, memory, disk drives, and storage systems using an agent installed on the device. It also integrates with VMware hypervisor hardware sensors to detect early signs of degradation, giving you a chance to schedule maintenance before failures cause outages.

Can I customize alerts for specific OS or hardware issues?

Yes. Auvik includes preconfigured emergency alerts for serious issues like failing CPUs or critical Windows services going offline. With Auvik, you can build custom alerts that track exactly what matters to your environment and deliver notifications through email, Slack, Teams, or your ticketing system—so you always get the right alert at the right time.

What OS and hardware metrics does Auvik track?

Auvik tracks core performance metrics including CPU utilization, memory usage, disk partition capacity, and Windows service status. This data is available in real time and over time, making it easy to spot anomalies, optimize resources, and plan for future capacity needs.

How quickly can Auvik start monitoring my servers?

Once the Auvik Collector and lightweight agent are deployed, Auvik automatically discovers your Windows servers and begins monitoring hardware and OS metrics within minutes—no manual configuration required.

Does Auvik integrate OS and hardware monitoring with the rest of my network data?

Yes. Auvik connects server and OS insights with your broader network environment, so you can correlate performance issues with network traffic, applications, and end-user experience. This gives you the context you need to identify root causes faster and prevent repeat problems.
