Running Plugins

As with other functions in the Scalix Management Console, the contents pane lists all available Plugins in a hierarchy, with individual Plugins appearing underneath the servers on which they run. There also is an All Servers node with Plugins that have global impacts.

Scalix comes equipped with several template Plugins. These aren’t the only ones available for use. You can create your own.

To run Plugins:

1. In the contents pane, select the Plugin you want to run.
2. The General tab of the contents pane explains the Plugin’s function.
3. To run the Plugins, click the Run tab.
4. Fill in the fields as needed. Those fields vary depending on the script being used.
5. If results are called for, they appear in a pop-up window titled, Plugins Results.
6. To refresh the results, click Enable automatic refresh in the upper right-hand corner, fill in the time interval desired, then click Refresh.
