Do you find yourself asking…

  • What is Exchange monitoring?
  • Why is Exchange monitoring important?
  • What do Exchange monitoring tools do?
  • How does Exchange monitoring work in Server & Application Monitor?
  • Related Features and Tools

Exchange monitoring is the process of monitoring Microsoft Exchange Server performance by tracking key metrics to help ensure servers are performing as expected, supporting quick issue resolution, and helping identify opportunities to improve performance.

Some of the key elements involved in Exchange monitoring include memory, CPU, utilization of Exchange servers, disk space, and monitoring the status of Windows Services related to your Microsoft Exchange Server. Monitoring Exchange components can also help inform important storage performance decisions, such as deploying high-performance disks and spindles, selecting the right RAID configuration, and aligning your disks to help improve performance.

Exchange Server monitoring is integral to keeping your organization and business communications running smoothly. Whether it’s scheduling meetings, getting notifications about vulnerability issues within the network, or closing deals, using Exchange monitoring to ensure the health, availability, and performance of an Exchange Server can be important for supporting the bottom line of a business.

Exchange monitoring tools are designed to simplify the process of tracking server performance by automating the collection of metrics and compiling insights into actionable dashboards to help ensure your servers are performing without issues.

An Exchange Server monitoring tool can help you more effectively track performance and security issues by:

  • Proactively alerting when key metrics like free space availability, database usage, and average mailbox size cross predetermined thresholds
  • Showing both historical and current data to forecast storage metrics and plan for mailbox database capability
  • Providing suggestions for optimal storage performance options
  • Helping you identify and troubleshoot which user mailboxes have problems without needing to run scripts to help you save time
  • Supporting the ability to easily drill down into a specific issue, so you can fix it as quickly as possible
  • Having a user-friendly interface, which allows you to find the information you need quickly and easily
  • Incorporating an advanced reporting tool to make Microsoft Exchange reporting both easy to read and visually appealing
  • Accessing to details on Exchange user permissions, which can help internal auditors quickly verify compliance and other regulations.
  • Alerting if access accounts are organized insecurely and using automated deprovisioning in situation of insider threats

With SAM as your Exchange Server monitoring software, you can get deep monitoring insights of your Exchange infrastructure using its integrated AppInsight™ for Exchange, which is built to exclusively monitor the Exchange Mailbox role to provide a single view of current and historic performance metrics such as storage, mail queues, mailbox databases, events, and critical processes and services.

The Exchange monitoring tool in SAM is designed to proactively alert on key Exchange server performance metrics including transaction log size, average mailbox size, and database usage and free space. It can also constantly monitor the performance of the mailbox server, hub transport server and edge transport server. The Exchange monitoring tool then uses statistical baseline thresholds to alert on abnormal hub transport messages queued.

In addition to providing advanced and easy-to-use reporting tools and interfaces as part of its Exchange Server monitor features, SAM can let you see information about synced mobile devices and other devices. SolarWinds SAM can also show you your organization’s top mailbox offenders with the ability to drill down into mail usage patterns, so you can get a better sense of how your Exchange Server is being used by your business.
