Figure 1: Application Monitored by One Check
Mail Server Down
A Down problem indicates that the host the application is running on is
responding but the application is not available.
To diagnose Down in this scenario, ACM observes that the TCP checks sent
to SMTPService time out, resulting in a TimedOutSymptom event. A
TimedOutSymtpom event occurs when ACM does not receive a response to
a TCP check.
