Managing the server
Monitoring server performance
You can review the performance of individual servers or a group of servers using the Administration Console. The
servers are arranged in a tree structure.
A series of tabs is displayed along the top of the Manage Servers panel. From here, you can perform the following
actions:
•
Review the performance statistics for the computer where the applications are running.
•
Review information about connections to the server.
•
Review information about the applications located on the server or virtual hosts.
•
Review server licenses and, if necessary, add serial keys.
•
Review the access log and server log.
The Servers panel occupies the left side of the screen in this section of the Administration Console. The panel lists the
servers and virtual hosts that you can access and manage.
