Ixor Software -
Refamo 3
-
ReFaMo
is a stand alone software, suitable
for controlling and checking the status of any network
configuration. From a small office with only 3 PC’s to a huge
office with 1000+ machines.
-
The new ReFaMo 3.4.7
is by far more polished than any previous version a complete
update to our leading cluster monitoring solution.
ReFaMo 3.4.7 has been re-designed and re-written from the
ground up. . Not only have we integrated many often requested
features by our customers, such as grouping, VNC, search,
improved node selection and better management, but the entire
user interface has been reworked to be less cluttered, more
intuitive, and far more responsive.

ReFaMo 3 - Feature List
-
Grouping: Flexibility to control and monitor various Group
Systems. Users can override (Energy settings, Global
wake/restart/shutdown and CMD options).
New UI: New faster UI with faster response time. Easier
to control and monitor.
Rename Machines - Nodes:
Ability to rename WINS or IP address for better identification.
-
VNC Option
-
CPU Temprature
Reading and Automatic shadown when CPU is "HOT".
-
Automatic Search:
Automatically add PC's IP range.
Option to add only machines with ReFaMo Node.
-
Automatic Node Update:
All machines will be automatically updated with the latest
ReFaMo Node.
-
Custom CMD: User can store command line executes.
-
New System
Graph Plane: Embedded Graph
Option new UI and colors.
-
All Windows Operating Systems:
(tested: Win XP-Vista 32bit/64bit, 2003Server & 2008 Server
32bit/64bit)
-
Group your systems for better management.
The new ReFaMo is based on groups, sorted in a tree-link
structure. Each group can contain as few or as many machines as
you like, accept commands such as 'shutdown', 'wake', and
execute remote commands on its members, whether they are
machines or other groups inside it. On the main display, a group
shows the average stats of the machines and groups it contains.
Moving machines and groups around is a breeze, so you can
dynamically assign groups based on their location, task, or any
criteria that you need according to your own workflow. All
settings are now inherited, so that you can use one set (the
global settings) for everything, derive group-level
configurations, or simply override certain settings for any
arbitrary group or machine. (The reverse also works: You can
change the settings for a whole range of machines by overriding
their settings from a parent group!)
-
Work faster and more intuitively through the new user interface.
The user interface is no longer a flat list, but a tree, meaning
that you can view your groups and machines in as coarse or
detailed layout as you choose. It makes viewing huge machine
clusters of hundreds or even thousands of machines intuitive and
quick. You can re-assign groups and machines by just visually
dragging and dropping between them with the mouse. You can
click on headers to auto-sort machines alphabetically, by CPU,
memory or disk load, or you can manually place each machine in
each group. The graphing for each system is now integrated and
slipstreamed into the main window and you can view the graph for
whatever group or machine is currently selected.
-
Identify systems easily through labeling.
Machines are no longer solely identified by their WINS or IP
address. You can now click on their name on the tree and give
them a descriptive name which you can use to better identify
them. Their actual address is now defined in their property
sheet. Speaking of which, changing the properties of a group or
machine now just restarts
the monitoring for itself and its children and does not affect
the other monitored nodes.
-
Access a remote system in multiple ways: RDP, screen view, and
introducing VNC!
ReFaMo now supports three options to access a remote machine:
The usual Remote Desktop Login, now updated to be better
compatible with XP SP3, Vista, and Server 2008, the traditional
view-only screen capture feature, and now it additionally
features an integrated VNC client to support legacy systems or,
for instance, offer remote functionality to users who need to
have access without locking a user from their own session.
-
Select and control systems easily
Selecting and issuing commands has never been easier: You can
now send commands to an individual machine, by group, or select
various machines and issue the command to those. In addition,
selected machines can be moved to a specific group, or just
removed from the list of monitored systems. The selection
process is intuitive and straightforward. Click on the checkbox
for a machine and it is selected, click again and it's not.
Clicking on a group's checkbox will select the entire group, or
un-selecting will clear all selected children too.
-
Simply and quickly add many nodes
You can add systems into a group by entering its WINS name, IP
address, or specify a range of names and addresses to add. You
can do this through a visual editor or just type a shorthand
expression for speed. This makes it a snap to add monitoring
for hundreds of machines in a few clicks. In addition, you can
scan a range of names or addresses to add only the machines
which are running the ReFaMo node software already.
-
Have instant control
The methods that ReFaMo uses to scan and connect to monitors has
been completely reworked and we can now connect and monitor
systems much, much faster than the previous version. Only a few
second after startup, ReFaMo can know the state of hundreds of
machines on your local network and connect to those who are
active. In addition, startup times have been improved and the
CPU footprint for ReFaMo has been reduced. For you the bottom
line is getting things done much faster.
-
Upgrade your entire cluster with one click
Instantly deploy upgrades of the ReFaMo node applet to every
monitored machine without need for manual intervention. ReFaMo
will detect if nodes need upgrades and prompt you to
auto-upgrade each one. In case of a bug-fix or new feature
release, you can install the new ReFaMo on your workstation and
let it upgrade your entire infrastructure with just one click.
-
Have ReFaMo blend into your desktop
In addition to the translucent, border(-less), and coloring
modes, ReFaMo now supports custom theming, allowing you to
tailor its appearance to match whatever color or style you
prefer. Simply open the theme editor and visually chose the
colors you would like for each class of component, such as
background color, active color, and so forth. Click on preview
to get a better look on how it will appear before committing to
it.

If
disk I/O takes a long time, a counter appears next to the
machine's 'led' and shows how long this has been going on. We
found this helpful in checking for memory overflows where there
is swap thrashing.
