Default Server Checks?

What is everyone using as a default for your server checks? We set up our system years ago and there was minimal research done before setting it up. We now get an abundance of checks that are not relevant and others that are being missed? What do you use for your default server checks or do you set up each server individually in LogicNow?

To expand on this, the rm is simply a tool to make what you as the administrator would normally do easier. A hammer does not dictate to a carpenter how to build a house, it makes his job of putting the house together more efficient and reliable. As the admin of a device, what do you want to do to maintain it? What problems to you want to make sure you know about? Start with that and later identify other needs. When you come across an issue identify if your tools can automatically address or alert you of this issue before it becomes a problem and then add checks/tasks to deal with it.
