Start/Stop System Monitor
When an InterSystems IRIS instance starts, System Monitor starts automatically and begins calling configured classes in each configured startup namespace; this cannot be changed. While the instance is running, however, you can stop System Monitor, and must do so in order to change the configuration of Health Monitor. In addition, following any change you make to the System Monitor configuration for a namespace, you must restart System Monitor in the namespace for the change to take effect.
When you enter 1 at the main menu, the following menu is displayed:
1) Start System Monitor
2) Stop System Monitor
3) Exit
Enter 2 to stop System Monitor when it is running, and 1 to start it when it is stopped.
Note:
System Monitor monitors the size of the messages log and rolls it over when required. When System Monitor is stopped, the messages log may exceed the limit set by the MaxConsoleLogSize configuration setting until the instance is restarted or the PurgeErrorsAndLogs task is run. See Monitoring Log Filesfor information about the messages log.
