System Management

Enterprise Content Management solutions are a critical business system. Systems managers need to monitor and manage these systems to ensure maximum uptime and availability. The Alfresco Enterprise Edition includes a number of tools to help these systems managers. The Alfresco Enterprise Edition includes:

• JMX Monitoring – Supporting the JMX standard allows the Administrators to monitor key system resources (i.e. database connections, memory usage, and Alfresco subsystems). Alfresco Enterprise Edition includes support for industry standard clients like JConsole (ships with JDK), Hyperic and HP OpenView, etc.


System Monitoring and Administration Tools

• Runtime Administration – Administrators can use runtime configuration tools to change Alfresco Enterprise Edition system settings on the fly. Allowing Administrators to change system settings, configure system resources and restart Alfresco subsystems without the need to stop the server
• Cluster Aware – Alfresco Enterprise Edition is cluster aware, allowing the automatic replication of new systems settings across all content servers
• Automatic Index Checking – Inbuilt systems continually monitoring and check for consistency of systems indexes, fixing any errors on the fly. Removing the need to restart servers
• Systems Reporting – Comprehensive reporting provides detailed information on systems environments, installation and configuration data. Providing a critical link between customer and Alfresco support enabling quick issue resolution

Dedicated administrations tools can dramatically reduce the time and effort needed to identify and fix systems issues and help to maximize system uptime and availability. These simple to use configuration tools will simplify systems maintenance and help to reduce internal administration and support costs.

Bottom Line: Extensive systems management tools help to minimize systems downtime, ease troubleshooting and reduce support costs
