Sometimes we have people ask us “how can I be sure that VitalSigns itself is running?” Great question! In other words, how do I monitor the monitor?
A new feature is now added to the latest VitalStatus template answers this question. With each update to the VitalStatus database, the VitalSigns monitoring service updates a document in the hidden (LastUpdate) view.
The various dashboard pages can now very easily do a lookup to that document can see how old it is. If it was updated less than 90 seconds ago, VitalSigns is running.
