Remarks

The Monitoring element of a management pack contains discoveries and monitoring type workflows that comprise the health model of your management pack. The health model is designed to monitor the service model of your application or service. Your service model is defined in the EntityTypes element in the form of an object model that consists of ClassType and RelationshipType definitions. The service model must be clearly defined before you begin to define your health model.
