Updates / Upgrades

PA File Sight can be upgraded by simply installing the latest version on top of your existing installation. Your settings and databases will be upgraded as needed.

You might need to reset the PA File Sight service's Run As account (from Settings or the Windows Services applet), but other than that no further configuration changes will be needed.

[We needed] a way to centrally monitor and manage multiple server issues in a manageable way. [PA Server Monitor] does that in spades. Its versatility in the scope of monitoring is extremely broad - and accurate.
Hands down. It's the bomb.
