Simple Server Manger Improvement Suggestion
Have you used Oracles Server Manager for EnterpriseOne?
If so, you may have noticed a little feature that is really quite annoying:
- when items are listed on a page they are not consistently sorted.
In other words, when you display the page one time the items are in one order. Then, when you display the same page for a different server the items are in a different order. For example, below are 2 screen shots of the JDBj Service Caches for 2 separate EnterpriseOne HTML server instances. You will notice that the items in figure 1 are in a different order than figure 2.
Figure 1: 
Figure 2: 
This annoyance happens in most of the other screens that are available in Server Manager.
In my opinion, it would be really nice to have a consistent order to the items in the list.
Have you found anything in Server Manager that was annoying?
Stewart,
I totally agree with your frustration. I also noticed that the random sequencing extends to configuration files as well. For example, on a new system, I run the “Create E1 HTML Instance” from SM 3 times in a row to make my 3 web environments. Not only does the config page sequence differently each time (sometimes pathcode is on top, other times its bootstrap environment), but the jas.ini and jdbj.ini files are frequently in a different order from each other. I guess it’s a passive aggressive attempt to get us to stop looking directly at the files and only use Server Manager!
Matthew,
I feel your pain. Even with all the improvements, little “features” like this really make the transition difficult.
