[Xymon] monitoring Domain Controllers

[Root, Paul T]

Hi,
                Recently, I inherited some Windows machines. Including a pair of Domain controllers.

                I'm wondering  what are somethings I'm going to want to monitor to make sure these things keep running?

                I have the Powershell client installed no problem.

                I see DNS and DHCP services, and am adding those. Then I see ADWS, the active director. Each machine has it as starting automatically, but only one is running. I assume that's correct, and that they watch each other so only one is running, right?

                Is there a way to do a combo test to make sure it is running on only one?

Thanks,
Paul.
