6 Snap Server Administrator Guide
• Java Requirements —
JRE 1.4.0 or higher must be installed.
• MacOS requirements —
If you plan to run Snap Server Manager on a Macintosh
client, you must upgrade the client to MacOS 10.2 or higher. (Required for JRE

Launching Snap Server Manager
Launch Snap Server Manager using one of the methods described in the following table:
Multiserver Administration (GuardianOS Snap Servers Only)
Multiserver administration is available only for GuardianOS Snap Servers.
• Simultaneous application of settings to server groups —
You can organize
GuardianOS servers into functional groups and apply settings to all servers in the
group simultaneously.
• Comparing settings across servers —
Snap Server Manager can compare settings
across any number of GuardianOS servers and highlight settings that differ.
• Copying settings from one server to one or more different servers —
SSM can
compare settings across any number of GuardianOS servers and identify when
settings differ among servers. For example, comparing protocol access
configuration for a group of servers may reveal that settings are consistent for
Windows, NFS, and AFP but that differences exist among servers in HTTP/
HTTPS and FTP settings.
• Scheduling operations to run during offpeak hours —
Operations can be
scheduled to run on multiple GuardianOS servers during offpeak hours.
• Automatic e-mail notification of completed operations —
You can configure SSM
to send an operations report (CSV format) upon completion of any operation.
