What is Server Downtime

Server downtime, a period of time when the server is unusable, is prevented by close monitoring and management of key server metrics. Server downtime can result from overloaded processors, rapidly expanding memory usage, disk errors and other problems. Administrators can reduce server downtime with server monitoring utilities that alert them when critical thresholds are passed so that the admin can take corrective action.
