from one location. From the Server Monitoring page, you can download and install the Server Manager client AIR
application.

Configuring the Server monitoring settings
The monitoring server can be configured in one of the following ways:

•
Use Admin API (servermonitoring.cfc)

•
Specify the port on which monitoring server listens. The default port is 5500
Note:
If a server monitoring application is already running, the configuration mentioned here takes effect only after you
