This menu contains all of the active settings in the GWAVA system for the GWAVA server. Editing and saving changes in this section changes the active settings in the GWAVA server within a couple of minutes.

[edit] Server Status

The Server status page displays the basic status and rundown of the server and the platform it detects as the running system. The server name, up time, server time, database ID, object, and record count, thread count, and replicator status and queue are listed.

[edit] Configure Server

These are the global settings that are used for this specific server.

[edit] Configure Domains

All domains for which the host mail systems receive mail must be listed on this page, as either the default domain or as an additional domain; otherwise, GWAVA will not accept mail sent to a domain(s)not listed. This section is covered under the SMTP interface creation section.

[edit] Server Control

The GWAVA server functions can be controlled from this section; stopping or restarting GWAVA and mail flow. This is useful if there is a need to pause the mail flow in the system or if GWAVA needs to be restarted or worked on.

[edit] Program Control

There are 2 options with this feature:

[edit] Restart GWAVA services

 This will restart the GWAVA services

[edit] Stop GWAVA services

 This will stop the GWAVA services

[edit] Mail flow control

There are 2 options with this feature:

[edit] Enable mail flow

 This will enable mail to flow through the system

[edit] Disable mail flow

 This will disable mail from flowing through the system

[edit] IP reputation agent setup

The GWAVA scanning system can provide IP reputation services to other GWAVA servers in the same network. If a secondary GWAVA server is to provide the interface service, the connection information for that server must be specified via IP address. The default configuration is to have the local host provide the scanning service.

[edit] Logs

GWAVA keeps logs for each major module in operation, with the logging level determined by the server configuration. For most situations, leaving the log level at normal will be sufficient. The Log menu option allows the admin to view the logs from the GWAVA management console. The logs are also available in the file structure for offline viewing. The file location is listed at the top of the log page. <Where gwava is installed>/gwava/services/logs/<module>/<log> The different modules perform different tasks. The support logs, which are always set to diagnostic level, can also be found under the support directory for that module.

The main modules to view, if desired, are:

 gwava – The main scanning process
 gwavapoa – Post Office interface
 gwavaman – Management
 gwavaqms – Quarantine manager
 gwvsmtp – GWAVA SMTP service
