For example, in the threshold section, LanmanServer (Server service) is set
to 1 meaning the resource model checks if the Server service is
running. System Administrators may decide that on certain systems the
Server service does not need to run. On those systems they can change
the profile to set the Server threshold value to 0 and the resource model does
not check if the Server service is running.
The following table lists the thresholds that can be set for the Services
resource model. For each threshold it shows the name, a short
description, and the default value:
| Threshold
| Description
| Default
|
| Browser (Browser)
| This threshold determines the smooth running of the browser
service. If the browser threshold is set to 0, the browser service is
not checked to ensure it has started. Use the browser service to create
the list of computers and networks in the network neighborhood. It is
also needed so that the local machine is present on other network
neighborhoods throughout the local network.

|
| EventLog (EventLog)
| This threshold determines whether the EventLog service is running
correctly. If this threshold is set to 0, the EventLog service is not
checked to ensure it has started. This service logs errors and
information regarding the local machine. Important data can be found in
the event log when an administrator is trying to correct a malfunctioning
component of Windows.

| LanmanServer (LanmanServer)
| This threshold determines whether the LanmanServer service is running
correctly. This threshold is set to 0, the LanmanServer service is not
checked to ensure it has started. Better known as the Server service,
this service is used to manage shares that are accessible to other
workstations on the network. Without this service, no machine can
connect to the local machine.
| 1
|
| LanmanWorkstation (LanmanWorkstation)
| This threshold determines whether the LanmanWorkstation service is
running correctly. This threshold is set to 0, the LanmanWorkstation
service can not be checked to ensure it has started. This service is
the workstation service; it is the counterpart of the server
service. If it is not running, the local machine can not connect to
other machines on the network.
| 1
|
| Tivoli endpoint (lcfd)
| This threshold determines whether the Tivoli endpoint service, which
provides the endpoint with connectivity to the Tivoli Management Environment,
is running correctly. If the Tivoli endpoint threshold is set to 0, the
Tivoli endpoint service will not be checked to ensure that it has
started.
| 1
|
| Netlogon (Netlogon)
| This threshold determines whether this service is running
correctly. If the Netlogon threshold is set to 0, the Netlogon service
is not checked to ensure it has started. Use the Netlogon service when
logging onto the local workstation as well as processing logon attempts from
remote machines. If the Net Logon service is not functioning properly,
it is possible that nobody can log on to the system.
| 1
|
| NtLmSsp (NtLmSsp)
| This threshold determines whether this service is running
correctly. If the NtLmSsp threshold is set to 0, the NtLmSsp service is
not checked to ensure it has started. The NtLmSsp is the Windows LM
Security Support Provider. It provides Windows security to remote
procedure call (RPC) programs that use transports other than named
pipes. This service does not have to be running at all times, but if it
is, this does not cause any problems.
