RealServer 5.0 comes with four graphical applications that you can use to start and stop RealServer and to monitor performance: the Administration Page, the Java Performance Monitor, the System Manager, and the Control Center. In addition, command line utilities that perform a subset of these functions are available.
The Administration Page, the Java Performance Monitor and the Server Manager are primarily for viewing server status; Control Center is used to start and stop the server. The Administration Page can stop the server, but cannot start it.
The following table lists the capabilities of the three applications:
Start and stop server | ||||
Configure server settings | ||||
Track number of visitors connected | ||||
Show number of listeners per clip, bandwidth | ||||
View remotely via Web browser on any computer | ||||
Must be run on same computer as server | ||||
Operating system |
Windows users can take advantage of all four applications and the command line utilities to perform all functions. On the UNIX platform, the Java Performance Monitor can be used to observe server activity and the command line utilities can be used to start and stop the server.
