URL Monitoring without any app

[Ravi_c]

HI,

We have an website, which is hosted on IIS 7 Server, We need to monitore the URL which is poinintng to that webserver for every 5 Mins.

Without any splunk App, can I setup the alert to check for every 5 mins for URL status.
IF the status is other than 200 then we have to raise an alert.

Please let me know how I can achive this.

Please Help.

Write a script that checks the URL and writes an "OK" or "Error" message as its output. Create a scripted input that invokes your script at the desired interval. This will index the script's output. Then you'll need to set up a scheduled search that looks for the script's "Error" message and generates an alert.
