NetWare Remote Manager is the new name for the utility formerly known in NetWare 5.1 as NetWare Management Portal.
The overall look and feel for NetWare Remote Manager has been changed to conform with other Novell Web-based utilities, such as iMonitor and iManager. For more information about the layout of this utility, see Understanding the Layout of NetWare Remote Manager.
The Navigation frames have been renamed and regrouped to better identify the tasks associated with the links.
New functionality for NetWare 6 (functionality added since the updates to the PORTAL NLM in the NetWare 5.1 Support Packs) includes the following:
From this link, you open a Java* applet that allows you to view and run all the text-based console screens just as though you were using the keyboard at the server console.
From this link you can access a list of all the console commands. If you have always wanted to print a list of console commands and make your own notes about them, viewing and printing is now much easier.
The default front page for the non-logged-in user is gone. When you point your browser to the NetWare 6 server, you will see a Login window before seeing any page in NetWare Remote Manager. For more information, see Accessing NetWare Remote Manager.
If you log in to NetWare Remote Manager as a user with the Supervisor right to the Server object, you can access and perform all management options. If you log in as a user without this right, you can only see the volumes, directories, and files that you have rights to. You can view files where you have read access rights and upload files into directories where you have write access. For the most part, you will not be able to see or do any of the management functions.
As an alternative to using ConsoleOneTM to create, change, or remove partitions, volumes, and pools, you can use the Disk Partition Operation features in NetWare Remote Manager. For more information, see Managing Disk Partitions.
On multiprocessor servers, you can now view how each NLM program is distributing its activity across the available CPU. For more information, see Viewing CPU Execution Profile Data by NLM.
