MBOX ® REMOTE USER MANUAL 21
Monitor and Manage Modes
Mbox Remote includes two modes for managing and monitoring the Content Management system.
+ Manage - allows the Mbox Remote application to perform Content Management actions.
+ Monitor - allows the Mbox Remote application to monitor Content Management operations.
Mbox Remote automatically assumes the Manage role. Typically, no action is required unless the Remote application
is run on more than one machine. In this case, to specify which instances of Remote are allowed to monitor or
manage, use the two mode buttons located in the bottom-left of the window.
Note: Multiple instances of Mbox Remote are allowed to run as managers, but only one manager is allowed for each
Collection. To become the manager for a specific collection, first select the Master for a Collection, then press the
Manage button.
If another Mbox Remote application is set to Manage mode for a Collection that is already being managed by another
copy of Mbox Remote, a warning message will be displayed. If it is okay to assume the Content Management role,
then click the Attempt Takeover button. If not, click Cancel.
