Adding a Server

Overview

Adding a server to your ACS Monitor account creates a new server registration with its own license key, install token, and tier. Each server registration corresponds to a single ACS Monitor instance deployed on one host.

Steps to Add a Server

  1. Log in to your account at acsmon.com
  2. From the dashboard, click "Add Server"
  3. Fill in the required details:
    • Server name — a descriptive name for this instance (e.g., "London Office Monitor")
    • Admin username — the initial administrator username for the ACS Monitor web interface
    • Admin password — a strong password for the admin account
  4. Select a licensing tier (Free, Pro, Enterprise, or request a Custom quote)
  5. If selecting a paid tier, complete payment via Stripe
  6. Your server is now registered and you will receive your install command

After Registration

Once your server is registered, you will see:

  • License key — your unique 32-character key (see License Keys)
  • Install command — a one-line curl command to install ACS Monitor on your host (see Install Command)
  • Install token expiry — the deadline to run the install command (default 24 hours)

Multiple Servers

You can register multiple servers under a single account. Each server has its own independent license key, tier, and device/monitor cap. This is useful for MSPs that deploy separate monitoring instances for different clients or locations.

Server Naming Tips

Choose descriptive names that help you identify servers at a glance. Good naming patterns include:

  • Client name + location: "Acme Corp - Manchester"
  • Purpose + environment: "Primary Production Monitor"
  • Location-based: "DC-London-01"
