GroupWise Monitor includes the enhancements and new features listed below. Changes included in GroupWise 6.5 are indicated by (v6.5). Changes included in GroupWise 6.5 Support Pack 1 are indicated by (v6.5 SP1).
GroupWise 6.5 Monitor supports Apache Web Server on NetWare 6. Support Pack 1 includes support for Apache 2 Web Server on NetWare 6.5.
The Installation program recognizes the NetWare server's version, installs to the appropriate location (apache directory or apache2 directory), and configures the appropriate files.
For information, see Monitor System Requirements.
GroupWise 6.5 Monitor supports the Tomcat 3.3 servlet engine on NetWare 6. Support Pack 1 includes support for the Tomcat 4 servlet engine on NetWare 6.5.
Monitor does not include the Tomcat servlet engine, but can be installed to a NetWare 6.x server that is using it.
For information, see Monitor System Requirements.
The Monitor Installation program includes a startup switch, -pqa or /pqa, that instructs the program to show only the screens required to create a PQA (Palm Query Application) file. The PQA file can be used on a Palm OS device to access the Monitor Web console through the device.
For information, see "Creating a PQA File for the Monitor Web Console" in "Monitor" in the GroupWise 6.5 Administration Guide.
In GroupWise 6.5 Monitor, you can create groups of related agents to monitor together. All agents in the group share the same threshold, notification, and polling options, so that you can set these options once for the agent group, rather than for each agent individually. For example, you could create an agent group for each region or site in your organization. The groups can be nested hierarchically.
For setup instructions, see "Creating and Managing Agent Groups" in "Monitor" in the GroupWise 6.5 Administration Guide.
The menus of the Monitor Agent console have been reorganized to group features more conveniently.
Polling of monitored agents can be suspended and resumed either indefinitely or for a specified period of time. You can control polling from the Monitor Agent console and from the Monitor Web console.
For more information, see "Polling the Agents for Updated Status Information" in "Monitor" in the GroupWise 6.5 Administration Guide.
