When you install the Application Server, the FactoryLogix Server Management application is also installed. 

Info

Important
The Server Management application is instrumental in the FactoryLogix installation, and you should install it first during a FactoryLogix deployment.

Server Management allows you to:

  • Structure and index a FactoryLogix Database

  • Set security and connection options that the Application Server uses to communicate with the FactoryLogix Database

  • Configure system logging for troubleshooting

Note

Warning

FactoryLogix Server Management should be made available only to IT personnel or FactoryLogix project leaders. Server Management has many settings/tools that can dramatically impact the functionality of a FactoryLogix system, including the ability to overwrite existing system data.
