Server Properties Administration

Disabling a feature has the following effects:
●
Removes the associated applet button from the Navigation Toolbar for all EPICenter users.
●
Removes the applet entries, if appropriate, from the Device submenu available from a right-click
pop-up menu, from the EPICenter Tools menu, and from the Topology menu.
●
Makes the feature unavailable when creating or modifying roles.
In some cases, disabling a feature has additional effects:
●
Disabling the Alarm Manager disables the generation and processing of alarms. However, traps and
events are still logged, and traps are still forwarded if required.
●
Disabling the Alarm Manager or the Configuration Manager removes the associated report links
from the main Reports page.
Enabling a feature restores the applet button to the Navigation Toolbar and restores the appropriate
EPICenter menus and pop-up menus.
By default, all applets are globally enabled, assuming a license is installed for those applets.
The EAPS Monitor, the Policy Manager and VoIP Manager applets are not enabled unless an Advanced
Upgrade license has been installed. An attempt to enable any of those applets is ignored if an Advanced
license is not installed.
NOTE
In some cases, the change takes effect as soon as you click Apply . In other cases, such as the enabling the
Configuration Manager, the EPICenter server must be restarted. A notification is displayed if a restart is required.
Scalability Properties
Select Scalability from the drop-down menu field at the top of the properties panel to modify the
settings for server resources to provide better performance when managing a large number of devices.
Manipulating the thread pool size, default thread allocation size, number of SNMP sessions, and the
number of traps and syslog messages EPICenter processes per minute lets you configure the EPICenter
server to provide better performance based on the amount of server resources (number and speed of
processors, amount of memory) available. Changing these values should not normally be necessary
unless you are managing a very large number of devices (more than 1000 devices).
If you are managing more than 1000 devices, it is recommended that you run the EPICenter server on a
system with a 1 GHz or faster processor, and at least 1 GB of physical memory. For such a
configuration, you may also be able to improve the performance of the EPICenter server by changing
the parameters below.
NOTE
Changing the scalability properties on a system without suitable hardware could actually decrease the performance
of the EPICenter server.
To see the effects of the current scalability settings, run the Server State Summary Report in the Reports applet.
