Server Action
The Server Action module allows the admin to START, STOP and RESTART the server by mentioning the commands to start, stop and restart the server. Admin can manage multiple servers and can add details such as username, client name, server URL, and password. This becomes helpful when client faces difficulty during the need for updating various server actions. Admin can simply click on those server action buttons and can easily run the code mentioned in the commands. As a result, clients can get their server problems fixed without any hassles. Here are the features of this module:
- Admin can list down the credentials for different clientâs server.
- Also, as the server action commands vary for different OS, so admin can set commands for START/STOP/RESTART accordingly.
- When clicked on the server action button the command mentioned will run successfully implementing the action.
- Admin can also track the server actions made for various client server through history management feature.
- Additional information can be mentioned in the instruction tab if needed.
Prerequisites before Installation

Configurations

Separate user groups are created so that server action can be managed easily and admin can also provide access to particular user for managing server action.

After listing the client server details admin in case of any difficulty from client server can perform various server actions such as START, STOP and RESTART. Moreover, admin can provide commands for server actions as per the OS.
