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.
Add a new server to the list.
Edit server login information (user name and password) and select options such as remembering the password and automatically connecting when logging in to the server.
Delete a server from the list.
Connect to the selected server.
Ping the server to verify that it is running.
Restart the server or a virtual host.
Run garbage collection to clear unused server resources, such as streams and application instances, from memory. (Automatic garbage collection intervals can be set in the Server.xml and VHost.xml configuration files.)
Stop a server or virtual host.
