Supported Architecture - 64-Bit
Server Manager can only be installed on 64-bit Windows, however, 32-bit machines can be monitored.
Memory
16 GBs of available memory, 32 GBs suggested for faster performance when consolidating heavily loaded logs such as domain controller Security Event Logs.
Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8
The installation detects if the .Net Framework 4.8 is already installed. If not, the framework is automatically downloaded from Microsoft and then installed. Please note the framework may take a significant amount of time to install. Please be patient while the installation completes.
Domain Administrator Account
When using our Client Agent, no credentials are required, otherwise, to access and manage remote resources, Server Manager requires domain administrator credentials. If off-domain, then local administrator credentials. The first time the application is run, the Onboarding Wizard will prompt you to assign the necessary credentials to the service.
Windows Management Instrumentation (client and server)
Many functions within Server Manager utilize Microsoft's Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) API (e.g. Event Log management, CPU and memory monitoring). This software includes options to optimize WMI packet size and performance.
