.NET Framework version 2.0

Configures an application for health monitoring.

<healthMonitoring
   enabled = "true|false"
   heartbeatInterval = "time interval">
   <bufferModes>...</bufferModes>
   <providers>...</providers>
   <eventMappings>...</eventMappings>
   <profiles>...</profiles>
   <rules>...</rules>
</healthMonitoring>

The following sections describe attributes, child elements, and parent elements for this section.

Attribute	Description
enabled	Required Boolean attribute. Specifies whether health monitoring is enabled. If true, health monitoring is enabled.
heartbeatInterval	Required TimeSpan attribute. Specifies the interval, in seconds, for how often the WebHeartbeatEvent event is raised. The default value is "00:00:00", which indicates that no WebHeartbeatEvent event is raised.

Element	Description
bufferModes	Optional element. Defines the buffering capabilities for a provider.
eventMappings	Optional element. Maps friendly event names to the related event types.
profiles	Optional element. Defines a collection of parameter sets to use when configuring events.
providers	Optional element. Defines the health monitoring providers that process events.
rules	Optional element. Maps events to providers.

Element	Description
configuration	Specifies the required root element in every configuration file that is used by the common language runtime and the .NET Framework applications.
system.web	Specifies the root element for the ASP.NET configuration section.

This configuration section applies at the machine or application level.

The following default healthMonitoring element is configured in the root Web.config file in the .NET Framework version 2.0.
