Last Updated : Jun 05, 2026 |

Use this page to view the options that affect both the primary EPM server as well as the optional auxiliary EPM server.

General section

Field

Description

Experience Portal Name

The name of this Experience Portal system. Experience Portal displays this name on the Summary tab of the System Monitor page.

Number of Application Server Failover Logs

The number of backup logs to retain on the application server in case the application server cannot communicate with the Experience Portal database.

The number of failover logs determines how much data the server can send to the EPM when the connection is restored. If the number of failover logs is exceeded, the application server deletes the oldest log file and begins recording data in a new file. When that file is full, the application server deletes the oldest log file and opens a new file. This process is repeated until contact with the Experience Portal database is restored and the application server can write its logs to that database.

Commands to Retain in Configuration History

The number of media server configuration changes that Experience Portal should save in the database.

This value determines the number of entries on the <Media Server Name> Configuration History page.

Resource Alerting Thresholds (%) group

Field

Description

Disk

The low water threshold determines when the EPM generates an event, warning you, that disk usage is getting high. The high water threshold determines when the EPM generates an alarm, warning you, that disk usage is getting dangerously high.

HTML Units

The HTML usage threshold determines when the system approaches the licensed usage limit.

The administrator can configure the HTML usage threshold that triggers an alarm when the system approaches the licensed usage limit.

The threshold is displayed in percentage.
