PRTG Manual: OPC UA Server Status Sensor
The OPC UA Server Status sensor monitors the server status, uptime, and diagnostic information of an OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA) server.
For a detailed list and descriptions of the channels that this sensor can show, see section Channel List.
- Dutch: OPC UA Serverstatus
- French: OPC UA statut du serveur
- German: OPC UA Serverzustand
- Japanese: OPC UA サーバーステータス
- Portuguese: Status de servidor OPC UA
- Russian: Состояние сервера OPC UA
- Simplified Chinese: OPC UA 服务器状态
- Spanish: Estado del servidor OPC UA
Consider the following remarks and requirements for this sensor:
Remark |
Description |
---|---|
Activated server diagnostics on your OPC UA server |
This sensor requires activated diagnostic summary information settings on your OPC UA server to create all diagnostic channels. Without activated diagnostic summary information settings, the sensor can only show the server status and the uptime. Note that not all vendors support diagnostic summary information. |
Valid port |
This sensor requires a valid port for the connection to the OPC UA server. |
Credentials |
This sensor requires credentials for OPC UA in the settings of the parent device. |
IPv6 |
This sensor supports IPv6. |
Performance impact |
This sensor has a very low performance impact. |
Lookups |
This sensor uses lookups to determine the status values of one or more channels. |
Multi-platform probe |
You can add this sensor to a multi-platform probe. |
The sensor has the following default tags that are automatically predefined in the sensor's settings when you add the sensor:
- opcua
- opcuaserverstatus
- serverstatus
For more information about basic sensor settings, see section Sensor Settings.

Primary Channel |
Select a channel from the list to define it as the primary channel. In the device tree, PRTG displays the last value of the primary channel below the sensor's name. The available options depend on what channels are available for this sensor. You can set a different primary channel later by clicking below a channel gauge on the sensor's Overview tab. |
Graph Type |
Define how this sensor shows different channels:
|
Stack Unit |
This setting is only visible if you select Stack channels on top of each other above. Select a unit from the list. PRTG stacks all channels with this unit on top of each other. By default, you cannot exclude single channels from stacking if they use the selected unit. However, there is an advanced procedure to do so. |

Result Handling |
Define what PRTG does with the sensor result:
This option is not available when the sensor runs on the hosted probe of a PRTG Hosted Monitor instance. In a cluster, PRTG stores the result in the PRTG data directory of the master node. |
By default, all of these settings are inherited from objects that are higher in the hierarchy. We recommend that you change them centrally in the root group settings if necessary. To change a setting for this object only, click under the corresponding setting name to disable the inheritance and to display its options.
For more information, see section Inheritance of Settings.
Which channels the sensor actually shows might depend on the target device, the available components, and the sensor setup.
