Configuring the Web server

By default, the port used by the Web server is 8080, logging is enabled, and 7 days of logs are saved. A new log file is created each day and the logs are stored in C:\ProgramData\Quest\Active Administrator\Logs. You can change the port used by the Web server and the logging settings. When you click OK, the port is checked to see if it is in use. For example, if the server is running a Web server such as IIS, and you enter port 80, you will receive an error because IIS is already using port 80.

To configure the Web server
1
From the Start menu, open AA Server Manager, and select the Other Services tab.
2
Under Web Service, click Configure.
3
Optionally, Enable HTTP logging and set the Number of logs to keep in days.

Diagnostic Console

Previous Next


The Diagnostic Console is a powerful diagnostic and resolution tool. Its unique user interface provides a real-time representation of the data flow in your forest, allowing you to detect, diagnose, and resolve Active Directory problems.

* 
IMPORTANT: The Diagnostic Console is not included by default with Active Administrator. To download and install the console search the Knowledge Base articles found on the Quest Support portal.
* 
NOTE:  
•
The Active Directory Health license is required for the Active Directory Health module. If you do not have a license applied to your installation, the Active Directory Health module will not appear in Active Administrator®.
•
To run the Diagnostic Console, the Domain Administrator permission is recommended.
•
The Performance Monitor Users and Performance Log Users permissions are the minimum permissions required to collect most, but not all, Active Directory performance data on the target domain controller.
•
To collect performance counter values, the Active Administrator Console user account must be a member of the local administrator group on the target domain controller.

The Diagnostic Console offers expert help that explains each process and counter on a domain controller, and what a raised alarm means. The help system offers suggestions on how to resolve the alarm, common solutions, and next steps.

Graphical flows illustrate the rate at which data is moving between domain controller components. Components display the value of key statistics and metrics. The power of the Diagnostic Console lies in its ability to provide visual and audible warnings if performance metrics exceed acceptable thresholds. Components change color to show you the source of the problem.

A range of reports and graphs provide you with detailed information about a domain controller. This information can be viewed on the screen, or printed.
