  • 1.  Managing control actions

    Posted Oct 16, 2009 11:10 AM
    Hi all:

    Is there anyway to manage all control actions of different resources from a same one page?

    For example: I have 7 platforms with their respective Apache Server and I want to control restart/start/stop of each platform from the same one page.

    Thank you

    Regards,
    KPC

    Did you try putting the resources that you want to control (e.g., Apache Server) into a compatible-resource group? If you do that and look at the group, the control tab will allow you to send the same control command across all the compatible resources in the group. You can't do this with mixed groups, it only works if the resources in the group are all the same type. I believe this functionality is available in the community edition of the product, but we've been evaluating the enterprise edition lately so I'm not 100% sure about that.
