MySQL Manager
You use MySQL Manager to manage the version of MySQL that is installed with Mac OS X
Server. MySQL provides a relational database management system for hosting information
you want to make available and manage using a Web site.
It lets you
m initialize the MySQL database
m start the MySQL process and make sure it starts automatically when the server restarts
m shut down the MySQL process and keep it from starting when the server restarts
You’ll find MySQL Manager in /Applications/Utilities/MySQL Manager.app.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Tools
SNMP is a set of standard protocols used to manage and monitor multiplatform computer
network devices.
SNMP uses agents to contact network devices such as routers and servers. SNMP interacts
with these devices using virtual databases known as management information bases (MIBs).
Vendors provide MIBs that describe their devices so that they can be monitored using SNMP
applications.
Mac OS X Server comes with a MIB that lets you use SNMP tools to view a server’s system
and network usage statistics. To use SNMP on your server, use a graphical browser (not
supplied with your server) or the SNMP command-line tool available in /usr/sbin.
