Caché System Administration Guide - InterSystems Documentation

About This Book
This book is an introduction to accessing and running a Caché system. Managing Caché is easy; whether
running on a single PC or on a system of thousands of users, most of the information you need to get
the system running is contained in this document.
Caché is available on a number of different operating systems. Certain administrative procedures and
tasks may differ according to platform. Where this is the case, this document describes these differences.
On all supported operating system-Web server combinations, Caché provides the browser-based System
Management Portal application to manage and administer your Caché system. You can also use the
portal from a remote Web server.
On Microsoft Windows systems, Caché also provides a set of graphical user interface (GUI) system
utilities (available from either the Caché Cube in the Windows system tray or from the Caché submenu
of the Windows Programs menu). These graphical utilities are client/server applications that can talk
to the local Caché system or a remote Caché server regardless of platform. In addition, Caché provides
a set of analogous, text-based utilities that can be invoked from the Caché Terminal or used to manage
a remote system using Telnet.

• Using the System Management Portal

• Managing Caché Licensing
• Using Caché on Windows
