Is there a service that can monitor my web server and annoy me with phone calls (and or email) when it detects that its unresponsive to HTTP requests?

Have a look at this serverfault question: "Can anyone recommend a website monitoring service?" Or, do it yourself: "What is the best way to monitor a production server?" – Dirk Paessler Dec 11 '09 at 16:04

Pingdom has been working pretty well for me for a month. I only have a few sites in it, but it's noticed every time I've restarted the apache server :)

Microsoft System Center or you can setup Opmanager. Both work well.

I have been using ServerGuard24 for > 3 years and am very happy. They send emails and sms and are quite cheap.
