Managing the Server With the Control Panel

The Control Panel is a graphical user interface that displays server status information and enables you to perform basic server administration.

Note - If you are using the vdp-control-panel to manage the proxy server, you can only start, stop, and configure Java settings with the Control Panel.

The following topics describe the tasks that can be performed by using the Control Panel.

• Starting and Stopping Your Server Instance

• Configuring Java Settings (see To Configure Java Settings With the Control Panel)

• Managing Directory Data With the Control Panel

• Importing and Exporting Entries With the Control Panel

• Backing Up and Restoring Directory Data With the Control Panel

• Managing Indexes With the Control Panel

Note - The Control Panel is specific to the directory servers and cannot be used to manage or monitor the Sun OpenDS Standard Edition proxy.
