You can configure when the icons and colors change to accommodate your network environment. For example, a slow or
busy network may need longer delays before updating the icons or colors.
1. Select File, Options. On the Configuration tab, you will see Site Monitor and Connection Monitor. The Site Monitor
fields control the icons on the left pane of the Management Console and the icons on the right pane when a group is
highlighted in the left pane. The
Connection Monitor field controls the display when a server is highlighted in the left
pane. These two separate monitoring capabilities allow for flexible monitoring.
2. Under Site Monitor, specify Check Status Interval to identify the number of seconds between requests sent from the
Management Console to the servers in order to update the display. Valid values are between
0 and 3600. The default
setting is
30 seconds.
