1.3.2 Notes on System Configurations
Minimum configuration
In an environment with only one MAGNIA server, all modules are installed in one MAGNIA server.
In this environment, the fault report function does not work if a server fails (crashes, locks up, etc.)
Medium-scale configuration
In an environment in which several MAGNIA servers are installed, a Management Proxy is installed
in one MAGNIA server and only the Agent is installed in the other MAGNIA server units.
The Management Proxy runs 24 hours a day to monitor each Agent (including the Management
Proxy itself).
Large-scale configuration
A large-scale configuration has several Management Proxies, each of which monitors dozens
of Agent MAGNIA servers.
About HEW version
When an Agent function of HEW V2.1 is installed, it is necessary that a Management Proxy function
of HEW V2.1 is installed in the machine with which its agent information is registered.
When a Management Proxy function of HEW V2.1 is installed, a Manager function or an Agent
function which its Management Proxy manages of HEW V2.1 or older version are supported.
1.3.3 Security
HEW does not have any function for security of data transferred in the network. It is recommended that
the customer take security measures appropriate for the customer’s environment.
When it is necessary to restrict the use of HEW to specific users, HEW folder access authority can be
changed using IIS settings.
Windows NT and Windows 2000 permit Virtual Private Network (VPN) to be used as a network
communication security technology.
