CoastWatch Status Tool Help: Server activity

The server status panel below allows you to monitor server activity:

The following information is displayed:

Host
Shows the server host name and last known status update time. The server is queried once every minute to determine the current status, activity, files, and online data.
Activity
Indicates the server activity using several icons and an activity message:

The icons are colorized when the corresponding activity is being performed. The icons denote (left to right) server idle, receiving data files, processing data, and error. The error icon indicates that the server cannot be contacted for a status update.
Incoming
Shows a list of data files currently being received. Data files are retrieved by the server from a number of foreign hosts and take time to be completely transferred.
Waiting
Shows a list of data files currently waiting to be processed. These data files have been recently transferred from a foreign host but have not been through the data processing cycle.

You can change the server being monitored using the File|New server menu item. Once you enter the new server name or IP address and click OK, there may be a small delay while the program retrieves the status and online data from the new server.
