Description

  • The  N-able N-central Self-Healing feature refers to pre-configured responses and actions to specific types of service failures.

Environment

  • N-able N-central

Solution

When a specified failure type occurs, N-able N-able N-central will automatically restart the service or execute a script that has been configured by the administrator to try to resolve the issue. The system will then verify whether the issue has been resolved and will send the appropriate notifications.

Limitations:

Services monitored by the N-able N-central server cannot use Self-Healing.
Self-Healing at the device level is only available under the following conditions:
The device on which the service has been added is in Professional mode.
The operating system of the device is a Microsoft Windows variant.
The device on which the service has been added is being monitored by a Windows agent or a Windows probe.
Self-Healing can not be applied to services that are in service groups.
