Summary

Ultrasound gives administrators in all sizes of organizations a powerful tool to measure the health of File Replication Services (FRS) replica sets by providing health ratings and historical information about replica sets. Ultrasound provides a sophisticated monitoring system consisting of WMI providers, a data collection service, a SQL/MSDE database, and a powerful user interface. With Ultrasound, administrators can monitor the progress of replication and detect problems that can cause replication to become backlogged or stopped.
