1.    Use something like ServersAlive <http://www.woodstone.nu/salive/> to monitor the server.  It also can send notifications.  There are many others as well but I've not tested them.

2.    I use both the Mercury and NT wrapper to load Mercury as a service, both with automatically restart the server.

Hi,

We had mercury crashing about 3 times in the last 6 months but we didn’t notice until a few days after it happened.

Is there a way to get notifications of it crashing? or is there a external tool we could use to let us know it crashed or to make sure that the emails didn't get send?

 

Thanks
