Managing the Apache Web Server

To achieve this, do the following:

1. Login to the administrative interface of eG as an administrator (admin).

2. If the Apache web server is automatically discovered, then use the COMPONENTS –MANAGE / UNMANAGE page to manage the server. On the other hand, if the Apache web server is not discovered automatically, then either run discovery to get them discovered (Infrastructure -> Components -> Discover) or add them using the COMPONENTS page (Infrastructure -> Components -> Add/Modify) (see Figure 1). Components manually added will be automatically managed by the eG Enterprise system (see Figure 1).
