Hi
Yes, servicecheck is separate to svcs. You could set up in analysis.cfg and that would give you alerts when the service is stopped - servicecheck is there to enable automated restarting of the service.

Hello everybody,
during my first steps with xymonpsclient I have configured client-local.cfg to have this statement: servicecheck:WindowsTestService:60
It does what it should do: it restarts the service WindowsTestService after it hasn't been running for at least 60 seconds.
I was wondering that the above doesn't lead to be shown in the svcs column for my test machine in xymon? I know that I could also define a service check in analysis.cfg, but what would be the better way?
Regards Christian
