Sharepoint health monitors

Hi,

The simple way is you have to agree with the owner application that give you an URI to check (without authentication). Of course the response of your monitro request will be statick.

you will have no other answer than "200 OK"

More you can set in Monitor settings "Receive Disable String" to "503"

I think your request was misunderstood, the monitor can respond 200 OK and the user have a 503 error, independent of the monitor.

URL asked by user is different to this used in the monitor. so potentially the user may have problems that are not perceived by the monitoring url.

So what I advise you is to create a maintenance page that Trigg this kind of response 50* and display a message to user and notify you trough an email.

I hope you understood what I meant
