To collect data from Front End Servers, Standard Edition servers, or Mediation Servers, you must first associate these servers with a Monitoring Server.

If you create an Enterprise pool after you have installed a Monitoring Server, you can associate the new pool with the Monitoring Server when you create the pool.

Otherwise, to associate a new Monitoring Server with existing Front End Servers and Standard Edition servers, use this procedure. To associate Monitoring Server with a Mediation Server, associate the Mediation Server with a pool that you are monitoring.
