Enabling application stability monitoring

You can enable or disable the Kaspersky Endpoint Security stability monitoring that lets you track the number of times the application terminates abnormally and notify the administrator about the unstable operation of the application, as well as manage monitoring settings.

Configuring in the Web Console

In the Web Console, you can enable or disable application stability monitoring in the policy properties (Application settings General settingsApplication settings, Advanced application settings section).

The Enable application stability monitoring check box enables or disables monitoring of the state of the Kaspersky Endpoint Security application.

This check box is cleared by default.

To apply this setting, the application and the Network Agent must be restarted.

If the application is unstable, the following message is displayed in the properties of the device with the installed application: <Number> abnormal halts of the application since <date and time>.

Configuring in the Administration Console

In the Administration Console, you can enable or disable application stability monitoring in the policy properties (General settingsApplication settings, Advanced application settings section).

The Enable application stability monitoring check box enables or disables monitoring of the state of the Kaspersky Endpoint Security application.

This check box is cleared by default.

To apply this setting, the application and the Network Agent must be restarted.

If the application is unstable, the following message is displayed in the properties of the device with the installed application: <Number> abnormal halts of the application since <date and time>.

Configuring in the command line

On the command line, you can configure Kaspersky Endpoint Security stability monitoring using the TrackProductCrashes, ProductHealthLogFile, WarnThreshold, WarnAfter_#_crash, and WarnRemovingThreshold settings in the kesl.ini configuration file.

The TrackProductCrashes allows enabling the sending of device status information from Kaspersky Endpoint Security to Kaspersky Security Center when the application is unstable. This setting can take the following values:

The ProductHealthLogFile setting lets you specify the path to a file used for application stability monitoring. Default value: /var/opt/kaspersky/kesl/private/kesl_health.log.

The WarnThreshold setting lets you set the time interval (in seconds) in which the application must experience the specified number of abnormal halts before displaying a notification about unstable operation. Default value: 3600 seconds.

The WarnRemovingThreshold setting lets you set the time interval (in seconds) after which the application's unstable status will be cleared. Default value: 86400 seconds.

The WarnAfter_#_crash setting lets you set the number of abnormal halts of the application after which a notification is displayed about application instability. The setting can take values from 0 to 10. Default value: 10. If the value is 0, an unstable application notification is not displayed.
