    1. Must start with the word FEATURE.

    2. Must end with a double quotation mark (").

    3. Must have all lines (except the last one) end with a backslash (\) and not start with one.


  5. You recently upgraded your

    up.time monitoring station version and up.time

    Uptime Infrastructure Monitor Monitoring Station version and Uptime Infrastructure Monitor has stopped monitoring.

If you are upgrading to a new major release version (e.g. from 5.x to 6.x or 6.x to 7.x), you will need to retrieve a new license key from the License Portal (login required). To complete this process, login to the License Portal, identify the Deployment that you have upgraded, select the “Upgrade my Deployment link” and follow the onscreen instructions.
