MegaRAID Service Monitor

The MegaRAID Service Monitor program is a Windows NT Service Process. The
monitor program tracks status changes for hardware devices. The monitor program
runs in the background. It polls the status of the resources connected to the MegaRAID
adapters every 10 to 15 seconds.

The monitor program, MegaRAID Service Monitor, is part of the Power Console Plus
installation package. The monitor program is installed as a service and is loaded
automatically. If installed, this program logs peripheral device activities and status
changes to Event Viewer.

Event Viewer logs changes whether Power Console Plus is running or not. The changes
are also stored in View Log, which records changes only when Power Console Plus is
running. Status changes are stored in the MEGARAID.LOG file. This filename could
be different if the system has been customized. The contents of the displayable activity
log include all status changes and device activities.

The filename for the MegaRAID Service Monitor is MEGASERV.EXE.
