# Monitoring

We recommend monitoring CPU, RAM and hard disk of your aqua server. Furthermore, if you want to monitor whether users are able to login to aqua, you can consider simulating a login via API. The default address of the SOAP API is as follows:&#x20;

*`http://"yourhost"/aquaAPI/mainservice.asmx`*&#x20;

or

`http://"yourhost"/aquaAPI/mainservice.asmx?wsdl`\
\
The required service requests are *login* and *logout*. You can create an API User in aqua, which is allowed to login and logout. If the login is successful, a session code is returned, otherwise a stack trace error message might be returned. Do not forget to call logout after a successful login.\ <br>
