Introduction

Task Tsar™ v1.1 is a "self-administration" application, designed to increase the up-time of Windows NT and 2000 servers and workstations.  Today's software landscape is ever changing, with software companies releasing updates one after the other, all the while the next version of Windows is just around the corner, forcing even more updates and patches. This give rise to memory leaks, services stopping, services hanging, run away processor usage, hard drives filled to capacity and more.

Task Tsar is designed to tame misbehaved Windows services and applications through service automated service monitoring, software rejuvenation, and administrative tasks.  Additionally, Task Tsar can notify you via email that it has performed its task.

Service Monitoring
Set Task Tsar to monitor one or more of your critical services.  If it finds that the service has stopped, it can restart it.

Software Rejuvenation
Many Windows applications leak memory.  You can see this by monitoring your server memory over time.  And many of these leaky applications work fine, except for they fact that they leak memory. Many others eventually crash or hang.  Task Tsar can rejuvenate these services by cycling them on a schedule, allowing Windows to re-claim their resources.
