Pulse Manual Index

Overview

pulse™ has been designed to be simple to setup up and to require little or no ongoing administration. Setup involves downloading, unpacking and running a pulse™ server, stepping through an online setup wizard to configure required details. The vast majority of administration tasks are available to users with administrative privileges via the pulse™ web interface.

Setup

For a quick guide to setting up a pulse™ server, refer to the Getting Started Guide. More thourough details of various setup tasks are provided in the following sections:

Section Description

Installation How to unpack and install a pulse™ package.
Setup Wizard Configuring your pulse™ server using the setup wizard.
Server Commands Describes scripts available to control your pulse™ server.

Administration

Users that have been granted administration privileges are able to use the "administration" section of the web interface to configure their pulse™ server. Administration tasks are divided into two sections (presented as tabs in the interface):
