File Monitor Software for Server and Activity Monitoring

Easily monitor and manage file server performance

File activity monitoring lets you track file changes in real time

SolarWinds® Server & Application Monitor (SAM) is proactive file activity monitoring software designed to let you monitor characteristics like file age, file count, file size, and title.

SAM file activity monitoring can let you determine the last modification made to a file, so you can track unwanted changes. The file monitoring system can also alert you if the number of files in a directory crosses a predefined threshold. You can even perform an MD5 checksum comparison on the file to verify its integrity. 

Use templates to monitor file server performance and generate reports

SAM offers easy-to-use, built-in file server performance monitoring templates to help ensure you can quickly and accurately track the metrics you need. These templates can also be customized and created as you see fit, or you can import your existing scripts with a few simple steps. You can use the built-in reporting templates or the web-based interface to create custom file activity monitoring reports to support your business needs.

Receive advanced alerts on file server performance

Avoid alert fatigue that can occur with a flood of file activity monitoring alerts. SolarWinds SAM helps you solve this challenge by allowing you to set your own custom alert thresholds. Instead of guesstimating the norm, you can use the dynamic baselines feature in SAM to create thresholds matching the needs of your network. With nested trigger conditions included with parent-child dependencies, you can also help ensure your alerts remain completely relevant to the needs of your team. 

Quickly implement a robust file monitoring system

Not all IT environments are the same—that’s why you need a file monitoring system matching your infrastructure without having to go through a lengthy configuration process or time-consuming rollout.

SAM file activity monitoring software is designed to offer a high level of simplicity and automation for file monitoring. Once you install SolarWinds SAM, it’s built to automatically discover your environment—most of the time, you can start monitoring your system within an hour.
