Servers
Servers is a standard configuration interface for viewing the broker-level configuration options of a Unified Assurance server. You can also use this interface to update an installation to use newer packages. See Updating Unified Assurance in Unified Assurance Installation Guide for more information.
For information about interacting with the grid and form, see Standard Configuration Interface in Unified Assurance Concepts.
This user interface calls REST methods from the api/broker/servers endpoints. See REST API for Unified Assurance Core for details.
To open this interface, from the main navigation menu, select Configuration, then Broker Control, and then Servers.
Grid Details
The interface has the following buttons, in addition to the standard Unified Assurance buttons:
-
Version: Select a package version to update the selected server to.
-
Update Server(s): Select a server, then select a package version, then click this to install updates from the selected package version on the selected servers.
See Updating Unified Assurance in Unified Assurance Installation Guide for more information about installing updates.
-
Update Roles: Select a server, then click this to install additional roles on a server. This is similar to using the Package Manager application with the install-role argument.
The Cert Expiry column shows certificate expiration dates for each server. You can filter the column by date and sort the column by certificate expiration date.
The Cert Expiry column applies filters and sorting separately from the database query. If you combine Cert Expiry filtering or sorting with other column filters, sorting, or paging, row counts might be inaccurate. To filter or sort by Cert Expiry, increase the paging limit to show all server rows on one page. Then, apply the Cert Expiry filter or sort.
The Server Name column shows a certificate warning icon before the server name when a certificate requires attention:
-
A yellow warning icon indicates that one or more certificates expire within the configured warning period.
-
A red error icon indicates that one or more certificates have already expired.
To view the affected certificate names and expiration status, place the pointer over the icon.
