With lots of new features and an extra language the 2012 version of the add-in AdminiMe has been released.
What is AdminMe?
It is an add-in that constantly monitors your server without you having to do anything. As the Home Server is a headless machine that is running non stop for long periods of times, and mostly hidden away in some closet/basement/small room; people don’t look at its ‘health’ to often. But in reality, it could be that the server’ CPU usage is high for very long periods, or errors are occuring, memory utilization is high,…To avoid this, you can use AdminiMe! It will monitor your server in the background without you having to do anything. And in case something goes wrong, it will notify you.
Added to this monitoring, it contains a console where you can watch all kinds of parameters in real-time. Things like CPU, memory, network, disks and all kinds of statistics like uptime, longest uptime, # of starts,…
But it doesn’t stop there, it also has shortcuts to the most relevant tools: Event Viewer, Task Manager, Performance Monitor, Remote Desktop. You also have the option to add your own shortcuts to applications! And next to that, there is a ‘Run-box’ which has the same functionality as the Windows Run Dialog. There is also a screen where you can view, which users have open files to the server shares. All events are kept in a log that can be consulted later on.
