Loading last updated info...
How can you know that all components are working correctly on your site? It is vitally important to have a 'Health Check' page to validate everything is working correctly. This page will check the server and make sure:
- all the DLLs are present (and registered for COM ones)
- all the web services are working
- all the databases are alive, etc.
