Chapter 1
This chapter introduces the ASWM
Enterprise, and tells how to install and
uninstall it under Windows platform.
ASUS System Web-based Management Enterprise
Getting Started
1-2 Chapter 1: Getting started
1.1 Introduction to ASWM Enterprise
Welcome! Thank for buying our server products bundled with ASWM Enterprise
System Web-based Management software. The ASWM Enterprise is a proprietary
server management solution that gives a vital distinction to our servers.
In server management, system stability is a major factor, with efciency, cost-
effectiveness, and convenience following close behind. To comply with this, we
have created a reliable and user-friendly ASWM Enterprise monitoring tool. The
ASWM Enterprise is a web-based interface that allows system administrators to
conveniently manage computers either locally (from the same server), or remotely
(using a web-browser).
With its colorful, graphical, and informative interface, the ASWM Enterprise makes
server management a delightful experience!
1.1.1 How ASWM Enterprise works
The ASWM Enterprise is composed of an “agent” that generally acts as a data
collector, and a set of HTTP web pages that serve as the user interface (UI). The
data collected by the agent, which are essential for the continuous monitoring
operations performed by ASWM Enterprise, are displayed in the UI.
In the monitoring process, the agent basically keeps track of the hardware and
software status of the system. The agent has “sensors” that monitor fan rotation
speeds (in RPM), working voltages, motherboard and CPU temperatures, and the
backplane (if present).
In addition, the agent also monitors hard disk drives health status through the
SMART (Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology) feature, space
utilization of a le system, CPU or system memory loading, and even the trafc
status of a network device.
The agent records the history of the detected status of all monitored hardware
items. The status record includes the time of alert events (fan, voltage, or
temperature), and the type of alert event (critical, warning, or normal).
You can also congure ASWM Enterprise to react to exceptional situations. For
example, the administrator can be automatically notied by e-mail when a hard
drive starts to malfunction or when a chassis intrusion is detected. In this way,
ASWM Enterprise acts as an active guardian of the system’s key components.
1-3ASUS System Web-based Management Enterprise
1.1.2 Supported OS platforms
The ASWM Enterprise agent supports the Microsoft Windows platform, including
Windows 2003 Server, Windows 2003 R2 Server, Windows 2008 Server, and
Windows 2008 R2 Server platform. You can choose the appropriate package
depending on the primary OS installation of your server.
The ASWM Enterprise web pages are fully compatible with W3C HTML 4.0/DOM
standard. The web browsers with Microsoft Silverlight support can work with ASWM
