HP Client Automation (HPCA) is deployed in a distributed and tiered environment. Monitoring this infrastructure ensures the availability of the associated services and components.

You must ensure that the monitoring solution that you use in your environment is capable of performing the following tasks:
A solution with proactive and periodic test should be deployed that ensures these critical aspects are functioning.
