We’ve had Global Monitor in place with 5.8.4 for a couple of months. Primarily got it to help the data center folks keep an eye on lots of new sites. Another benefit is that it allows a group of non-Cloverleafers to investigate, edit and replay SMAT transactions. Other groups can check out and stop/start the interfaces to their non-production applications. A very small group is setup to check a few production interfaces after monthly patching of their applications.
It’s a web-based app so there is no client installation – that’s nice. I wish its security worked with Cloverleaf’s advanced security. Instead, a user’s certificate and key need to be stored on the Global Monitor server.
We are evaulating the GMX 5.0.1 (patch 1) and were wondering if your Operations staff experience timeouts of their sessions, that is, when they fire up the GMX and leave it alone does it stay running or timeout?
By the way, do you have any issues in accessing the GMX using https?
I am getting certificate errors within our LAN and no access from outside our LAN. That is using the IE and the https address from my home computer. (IE 7 on XP SP3; IE 8 on Win7).
Just to clarify here: after further investigation with Lawson Support,
the supplied certificate from Lawson uses a healthvision CA (certifying authority) certificate and so the address of our GMX server and the contents of this certificate do not agree. It can be bypassed within our LAN, however, our shop will not allow a direct, open-ended https access from the internet cloud. Too wide open.
So… for us Cloverleaf support folks we will do either a Citrix session or Cisco VPN session and access the GMX from within our LAN.
We are not using https. Outside access to Global Monitor, if ever required, would go through a user’s VPN connection and use a remote desktop app. Remote developers and oncall folks haven’t had a need for GM.
