Using Server Groups
NetWare Remote Manager lets you build server groups and perform
operations on those groups. Currently, the only operation you can do with a
group is to monitor server health.
To build a group of servers that you want to monitor from one page, access the
Server Group Selection page by clicking the Build Group link in the
navigation frame.
You must wait a few minutes while NetWare discovers the servers that are
available on your network to monitor and builds a selection page.
After the selection page is built, indicate which servers you want to monitor
by checking the Select All button or clicking the check box next to each server
that you want to include in the group, and then clicking the Build Server
Group link. The Server Group Operation Page is displayed.
To build the Multiple Server Health Monitor page, complete the Health
Monitor and Group Operations information and then click the Multiple Server
Health Monitor button. For more information on monitoring the health of
several servers, see “Monitoring the General Health of a Group of Servers” on
page 27.
You can save the configuration of the group so you can access this page again
without having to complete the configuration options. To save the
configuration of the group you have selected and completed the configuration
options for, click the Save Group File button.
To access the page at a later time for a server group that you have saved, do
the following:
1 Click the Load Group File link in the navigation frame.
2 On the Server Group file page, enter the path or browse to the
configuration file for the server group that you previously saved.
3 Click the Build Server Group button.
