New Sybase Control Center Features

Describes new Sybase Control Center for Sybase Unwired Platform features.

Redesign of Unwired Platform Administration Console

Unwired Platform has migrated to a new version of Sybase Control Center, and the interface has been extensively redesigned and enhanced.

The administration console displays as a perspective once the cluster has been registered and the administrator has authenticated with it.
The administration navigation structure provides an integrated cluster view, which shows cluster-wide actions in a common hierarchy and makes server-specific operations available on individual server nodes. In addition, the administration perspective has been refactored to support multitenancy features.
Domains provide support for multiple tenants in one or more registered clusters. Domains give organizations a logical partitioning of their environment, providing increased flexibility and granularity of control.
Security configurations allow you to configure security providers. This lets you assign security configurations to domains and packages, which allows you to scale security needs differently across your organization.
Server configuration includes additional properties that support messaging-based and replication-based synchronization properties, security policies for encryption, and performance tuning.
Multiple package types are visually differentiated on the tree according to new and existing application models (replication, messaging, and mobile workflow). You can configure, deploy, and manage each type of package.
An integrated administration perspective allows administrators to manage users and devices from a single administration view.
Simplified cache refresh policy setting allows administrators to more easily configure when cache updates occur.
System monitoring allows administrators to routinely assess system health via KPI evaluation and usage reporting.
Extended logging support now includes the ability to review server logs, domain logs, client logs and device logs.

Limitations to Sybase Control Center Features
