Modes of Operation
Direct Mode: Use this mode when your Web browser is pointed directly at an address or DNS name
on a machine running the iMonitor executable and reading information only on that machine's local
eDirectory DIB.
Some iMonitor features are server-centric; that is, they are available only to the iMonitor running on
that machine. These features use local API sets that cannot be accessed remotely. Server-centric
features in iMonitor include the DSTrace, DSRepair, and Background Process Schedule pages.
When using Direct mode, all iMonitor features will be available on that machine.
Key features of Direct mode:
Full server-centric feature set
Reduced network bandwidth (faster access)
Access by proxy still available for all versions of eDirectory
Proxy Mode: Use this mode when your Web browser is pointed at an iMonitor running on one
machine, but is gathering information from another machine. Because iMonitor uses traditional
eDirectory non-server-centric protocols for non-server-centric features, all previous versions of
eDirectory beginning with NDS 6.
x
can be monitored and diagnosed. However, server-centric
features use APIs that cannot be accessed remotely.
If you are in Proxy mode and want to switch to Direct mode for a different server, you can do so as
long as the server has a version of eDirectory in which iMonitor has shipped. If the server you are
gathering information on by proxy has iMonitor running, you will see an additional icon button in
the Navigator frame. When you move the mouse pointer over the icon, you will see a link to the
remote iMonitor on the remote server. If the server you are gathering information on by proxy is an
earlier version of eDirectory, no additional icon is shown and you will always need to gather
information on that server by proxy until it is upgraded to a version of eDirectory that includes
iMonitor.
