Chapter 4: Matrix Administration 36

If you receive an alert telling you to reboot a server, the message will

remain in the Alerts section until either Matrix Server is restarted on the

rebooted server or the server is removed from the matrix.

To view the current Alerts from the command line, use the mx alert status

command.

Matrix Server Operations

Many Matrix Server operations can be run in the background. These

operations display a popup window allowing you to send the operation

to the background.

A progress bar is displayed at the bottom of the console while operations

are running.

Disconnect from a Matrix

To close the Management Console window for the current server, either

select File > Disconnect or click the Disconnect icon on the toolbar. You

can then use either File > Connect or the Connect icon on the toolbar to

connect to a matrix from another server.

Exit a Management Console Session

To end a Matrix Server console session, select File > Exit. The matrix will

continue to operate after you disconnect from it. You do not need to have

an open Management Console connection to a matrix.

View Installed Software

The Installed Software window lists the operating system and PolyServe

software that are currently installed on each server in the matrix. To see

this window, select Help > Installed Software.
