Checking the status of your deployment
The Status
pane displays real-time status information about your FileMaker Server
deployment that is updated every few seconds. In the toolbar, your administrator name appears in the Welcome message. If you are a group administrator, the name of the group you are currently administering appears in the Welcome message.
Important Group administrators can’t change any settings because the
is not available.
The toolbar also contains the Server and Help menus.
• Use the Server menu to edit your deployment, to save and load the schedules and groups settings file, to test whether database hosting is working correctly, and to view additional information from the
Start Page.
• Use the Help menu to view FileMaker Server Help, find product documentation, or get additional information about your installation of FileMaker Server.
When you start Admin Console, the Status pane is automatically displayed. If you choose a different pane, such as General Settings, you can select the Status pane to redisplay the status information.
The Status pane has these four component sections:
