Setting Watchdog Services

In the event that servers stop for any reason, you can set watchdog services to automatically restart both the FYI Server and the FYI Administration Console Server. When the watchdog services are enabled, the watchdog service can send an e-mail alert to the Concordance database administrator when it restarts a server.

We recommend that you enable both the FYI Server and the FYI Administration Console Server watchdog services. You can enable and disable watchdog services on the Server tab in the FYI Admin Console. By default, the watchdog services are enabled for both servers.

For more information about setting up watchdog e-mail messages, see Adding additional administrators.
