System Status


To view system status details, launch the FlipFactory console. Click System Status to display this window.

FlipFactory Servers

Each FlipFactory server in a load balance group or FactoryArray is identified by the tab at the top of the window. If you're using a single FlipFactory, one tab displays the name of the server.

The System Status window displays the jobs in progress in the Active Jobs panel at the top of the window. The bottom panel (Active Monitors) displays the monitors.

To sort any column in these tables, click on the column title - you can sort in ascending or descending order. The arrow indicates the sorted column and its order.
