Overview
The Monitoring area gives you a real-time view of your servers and the gateway tunnels that connect them — plus the alerting to tell you when something needs attention.
Two views: across your fleet vs. one server
Section titled “Two views: across your fleet vs. one server”Monitoring is split across two surfaces, and it helps to know which one you’re looking at:
- The fleet view is a cross-server overview, part of the Contact System app. It rolls up connectivity, health, and active alerts for every server you operate, so you can spot problems at a glance and drill into any one server. See the Fleet dashboard.
- The per-server monitoring pages cover a single Mirth server — the one you’re signed into. This is where you create alert rules, configure notification destinations, and explore that server’s metric history. The pages below describe these per-server tools.
A server’s metric history and alert configuration are stored locally on the server itself, and optionally synced up so the fleet view can summarize them.
What you can do here
Section titled “What you can do here”- See connectivity and health across all your servers in the fleet dashboard.
- Track per-channel throughput and server vitals (heap, threads, load) for a server.
- Define alert rules that fire on thresholds, rate-of-change, absence, or state change.
- Route alerts to destinations — webhook, email, or messaging.
- Review historical events and analytics.
Navigation
Section titled “Navigation”| Area | Scope | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Fleet dashboard | All servers | Cross-server connectivity and health (in the Contact System app). |
| Alert rules | One server | Create and manage alerting conditions. |
| Destinations | One server | Where alerts are delivered. |
| Analytics & events | One server | Trends and the historical event timeline. |
A note on patient data
Section titled “A note on patient data”Monitoring is built to be PHI-safe: it collects numeric metrics and operational state, never message content. You can monitor freely without worrying about exposing protected health information.
