Shows the server type. There are two types of server:
A Micro Focus enterprise server. This is a server type that provides a run-time environment for COBOL programs running as services. MSS in parentheses after MFES indicates that the server has Mainframe Subsystem Support (MSS) enabled.
A Micro Focus Common Communications Interface server. This is a server that provides services using the Common Communications Interface (CCI), using the Directory Server as a naming service instead of registering with a CCITCP2 process.
The icon in the Type column will display '64' if the server has been set up for 64-bit working mode.
You can start and stop enterprise servers using Enterprise Server Administration. You cannot start and stop MFCCI servers from Enterprise Server Administration; if an MFCCI server is running on the network and has been configured to use the Directory Server, it appears in the list of servers automatically, with the status "registered". For more information about CCI, see your Configuring CCI book.
Shows the name of the server.
Shows the current status of this server. The possible values are:
| Stopped | The server is currently not running. |
| Stopping | The server is currently in the process of terminating. This is normally a short-lived status value which should be shortly followed by a change to the value "Stopped". |
| Started | The server is currently running and can respond to client and server requests. |
| Starting | The server is currently in the process of starting. This is normally a short-lived status value which should be shortly followed by a change to the value "Started". |
| Not Responding | The server process was previously marked as "Started", but the server monitor has subsequently not been able to contact it. There may be some network connection error, or the server itself may have abnormally terminated without first marking itself as "Stopped". |
| Invalid | An error has occurred such that it has not been possible to set the status to any other value. |
| Registered | This status is applicable only to CCI servers. It indicates that the Directory Server has been notified that a CCI server has started. |
Click this to start the server. You cannot see this push button unless the server has the status "Stopped" .
Click this to move to a page giving more detailed information about the current status of the server. You cannot see this push button when the server has the status "Stopped".

Lists the communications processes owned by the enterprise server. By default an enterprise server owns one communications process; you can create additional ones. For each process the following information is shown:
protocol:ip-address:port
where:
The total number of listeners owned by all the communications processes.
Click this to move to a page giving more detailed information about the service listeners owned by the communications processes.
Shows license information. The number before the slash is the number of licenses allocated to this server. When the server is stopped a dash is displayed, because the number of licenses that will be allocated is unknown until the server is started. When the server is running an asterisk can be displayed, indicating that unlimited licenses were allocated. The number after the slash is the number of licenses requested by this server.
Shows the date and time that the server's current status was last updated; this is local to the machine where the Directory Server is running. You can see this only in the expanded view of the Home page.
Shows information about the most recent event that occurred on this server, and how long the server has been in its current state.
Shows how many of each type of object (services, handlers, packages) the server owns. This is a summary view - it changes when you click the
