A method and apparatus for defining, creating, and applying checks to multiple computers simultaneously is disclosed. In a network comprised of multiple computers capable of being linked together, a number of parameters to be monitored are defined. Then a number of checks corresponding to the one or more defined parameters are created. Each check is a set of computer executable instructions to monitor a defined parameter of the one or more defined parameters. After the checks are created, one or more checksuites that each include two or more of the created checks may be created. One or more checksuites may be designated for deployment and applied to one or more of the multiple network computers.
