Mail Server

Enter your email server here. This can be entered either as a machine name or an IP address.
NOTE
: If your SMTP server does not use port 25 (default), you can specify :portnumber after the server address/IP address (for example, mail.company.com:587).

NOTE: If your mail server requires authentication, you can specify a user name and password in the format [user]:[password]@[mail server]

CP Email Interval (mins)

This email interval specifies the minimum number of minutes between Crash Protection notification emails. If you are experiencing regular difficulties with a server then use this option to avoid filling your email inbox!

Notification

This lets you completely enable or disabled email notification.

FusionReactor Web Root:

Web Root

This will be the prefix for FusionReactor requests. If the web root was set to "/fusionreactor/" and you were accessing the internal web server on a local machine over port 8088 then your final URL will look like this:

FusionReactor Log File:

Logging

If FusionReactor Logging is enabled then general information will be written to the FusionReactor Log.

View Size (KB)

This value indicates how much of the log file should be displayed when you view the FusionReactor Log from inside FusionReactor.

File Size (KB)

Specifies the size of each file in the FusionReactor Log rotating file set.

File Count

Specifies the number of files in the FusionReactor Log rotating file set.

 

FusionReactor Restrictions:

Restrictions

This value defines how FusionReactor Restrictions behave.

  • Monitor requests that match the rules - By default, no requests will appear in FusionReactor. If a request matches one of the rules defined on the FusionReactor Restrictions page then it will appear.

  • Ignore requests that match the rules -  By default, all requests will appear in FusionReactor. If a request matches one of the rules defined on the FusionReactor Restrictions page then it will be invisible.

 

Stack Trace : (Configuration Item only appears when using a Java 1.5 or higher JVM)

Stack Trace Method

Lets you select the method used by FusionReactor to generate and capture stack traces. Older versions of Java (before Java version 1.5) could not easily generate and capture stack traces of the running JVM but FusionReactor adds this functionality even on to such older versions. It is recommended to use the Java's Stack Trace method on Java version 1.5 or higher. On older versions of Java this configuration item does not appear because FusionReactor's default stack trace method is the only method that can be used to generate stack traces.

  • Use Java's Stack Trace - Use Java's built in implementation of generating stack traces

  • FusionReactor Default  - Use FusionReactor's
