Enterprise Server Cluster Control

After you add a web server to a cluster, you can do several tasks on the server:

You can perform these tasks on multiple servers by checking the boxes next to the server names and then clicking the appropriate button (for example, Restart).

Viewing log files

You can view the access and error log files for multiple servers in a cluster:

  1. Use the Product Selector list to display all Netscape Enterprise Servers.
  2. Check the servers whose logs you want to view.
  3. Type the number of lines you want to view from each log file.
  4. Click the View Access button or the View Error button. A screen appears listing each server with a status line that shows if the log file was found successfully. Each server is listed as a link to its administration server.
  5. Click the View button for a server. The log file for that server appears in a separate window, showing the number of lines you selected.
  6. Click the Close button to close the log file window.

Transferring configuration files

You can transfer configuration files from one web server to one or more other web servers. This is useful if you have multiple web servers that you want to share identical configurations.

  2. Check the boxes for the web servers that you want to receive a configuration file.
  3. Using the drop-down list labeled configuration file, choose the configuration file you want to transfer. The files you can transfer are:
  4. Using the drop-down list labeled from, choose the server that contains the configuration file you want to transfer.
  5. Click the Transfer button.
  6. Restart all of the servers that received configuration files. You can do this by returning to the Cluster Control page, checking the servers you want to restart, and then clicking the Restart button.
