Examples

The following code example shows how to derive from the BufferedWebEventProvider class to create a custom provider that writes the configured events to a local file for which appropriate access rights must be granted.

Remarks

ASP.NET health monitoring allows production and operations staff to manage deployed Web applications. The System.Web.Management namespace contains the health-event types responsible for packaging application health-status data and the provider types responsible for processing this data. It also contains supporting types that help during the management of health events.

If you want to customize the health-event processing, you can derive from the BufferedWebEventProvider class to create your own custom buffered provider.

Note

In most cases you will be able to use the ASP.NET health-monitoring types as implemented, and you will control the health-monitoring system by specifying values in the healthMonitoring configuration section. You can also derive from the health-monitoring types to create your own custom events and providers. For an example of creating a custom provider, see How to: Implement the Health Monitoring Custom Provider Example.
