Differences between Windows and Linux versions of Applications Manager

 

Although Applications Manager is available for both Windows and Linux operating systems, certain features available in the Windows version are not available in the Linux version. However, the basic functionality of all the other features remains the same.

 

The following features are available only in the Windows version:

  1. Exchange Server Monitoring: An extensive monitoring of the Exchange Server is available with the Windows Edition. Information related to SMTP, MTA, Information store, Information store mailbox and public folder is all gathered through WMI.

  2. Windows Performance Counters: Any parameter related to the Win32_PerfFormattedData can be monitored through Applications Manager on Windows.

  3. Event log rule: Any event can be monitored and notified when it occurs. This is useful when any application generates a failure event in the Windows Event log viewer. This is helpful in a way that the event log comes before the application actually crashes. This serves as a proactive mode of monitoring your applications and services.

  4. Active Directory Monitor: All Windows shops will have an established AD setup in their network and monitoring AD parameters and services becomes critical to provide a hassle-free activity across the network.

  5. Microsoft .NET Monitoring: You will be able to monitor Microsoft .NET attributes and Sharepoint services when Applications Manager is installed on a Windows OS.

  6. NTLM authenticated URLs and Recording HTTP(s) Sequence/Real Browser Monitor(RBM): You can record the HTTP(s) sequence through Recorder.exe tool which works only from a Windows OS. However, you will be able to save the sequence to Applications Manager on a Linux OS.
