Does anybody have any recommendations for monitoring Apache on a windows system. I found one MP from MS but in reading its manual it sounds as if it is just for Linux.

We usually just monitor the windows service for Apache. - Additionally the log directories as they used to grow fast: [https://github.com/Juanito99/Windows.Server.Webservice.LogdirectoryWatcher](https://github.com/Juanito99/Windows.Server.Webservice.LogdirectoryWatcher)

Which additional requirement would you have on monitoring Apache on windows?

Tanvanburen, welcome to this forum 🙂

When I had the same question I found a great blog series from Bob Cornelissen. It explains very good and with interesting background information how to solve this problem.

You’re welcome. - As I am not familiar yet with SquaredUp I can’t help more ~

Ruben, thank you 🙂

Thanks for the link.  
I am looking for a similar tutorial for SquaredUp, since I do not have access to SCOM.
