Status

The status window shows four tabs of information.

 

Status Information shows license and activation information, and a table of active devices across all companies.  When your license specifies the number of devices, the active device list provides a reference of what devices are in use and apply toward the license limit.
 
Processes lists all active processes associated with the CirrusPrint server.  This list includes web server, SCGI service, and processing tasks.  In an active system, there will be a number of tasks running all the time, and some that are transient while jobs are processed and other background tasks are performed.
 
Connections shows connected clients, both system clients and browser clients.  Note that browser clients don't provide immediate disconnect information, so it can take several minutes for such disconnections to register at the server.
 
Updates presents a list of available update files, with an option to download an update that is later than the  currently installed version.  When selected, an update level can then be installed.  On Linux, the install is performed by the server itself, clicking the Install button.  On Windows, which requires a service stop and ensuring related programs are closed, there are instructions on how to apply an update.
 
There is an option in configuration to download available updates on a daily basis. While downloads can be automatic, to avoid unplanned disruptions updates must be installed manually in this Updates tab or optionally from the operating system.
