MegaService Monitor
The MegaRAID Service Monitor is a Windows Service Process and is
called the MegaService Monitor. The MegaService Monitor runs in the
background and tracks status changes for hardware devices. The
MegaService Monitor polls the status of the resources connected to the
MegaRAID Servers every 10 to 15 seconds.
The MegaService Monitor is part of the Power Console Plus installation
package. The monitor program installs as a service and loads automatically.
This program logs peripheral device activities and status changes to
Event Viewer, which update whether or not the Power Console Plus utility
is running. The changes are also stored in View Log, which records
changes only when the Power Console Plus utility is running. Status
changes are stored in the MEGARAID.LOG file. The contents of the activity
log include all status changes and device activities.
The filename for the MegaService Monitor is:
MEGASERV.EXE
