Fast switching makes it possible to switch from one organization to another using a drop-down list in the top-right corner of the Administrator Console instead of logging in to each organization separately. Also, it makes it possible to switch between linked K-Series appliances without logging in to each appliance separately. See Enable fast switching for organizations and linked appliances.

Quest publishes a base set of Windows Reliability and Performance Monitor (PerfMon) templates and non-Windows open-source Perl scripts on ITNinja, so that users can extend their server monitoring capability and identify system and application performance issues. These unmanaged templates and scripts are available for download so that users do not have to create them from scratch.

Quest has a Knowledge Base of articles about the appliance, which you can access at https://support.quest.com/kace-systems-management-appliance/kb. The Knowledge Base is continually updated with solutions to real-world issues that administrators encounter.
Konductor is an internal appliance component that regulates communications between the appliance and managed devices to keep the system running smoothly. The number of tasks Konductor is running appears on the Tasks in Progress widget. In addition, task throughput information appears in the General Settings (on appliances with the Organization component enabled) or in the Agent Settings (on appliances without the Organization component enabled).

Log Enablement Packages (LEPs) enable performance threshold monitoring and monitoring for applications such as Exchange, Internet Information Services (IIS), and so on, for servers. In the Log Enablement Packages list page, Quest publishes a base set of Windows Reliability and Performance Monitor (PerfMon) templates and non-Windows open-source Perl scripts, so that users can extend their monitoring capability and identify system and application performance issues. Monitoring on the appliance works without these additional templates and scripts, but the profiles that are created from the templates and scripts are helpful if users want to do performance threshold monitoring. See Configuring application and threshold monitoring with Log Enablement Packages.

See Search the scripting logs.
