Using the OpenEdge Management or OpenEdge Explorer console
OpenEdge Management and OpenEdge Explorer share the same graphical user interface, the management console. The links you see in the console are the same whether you are using OpenEdge Management or OpenEdge Explorer.
However, while certain links are always visible, they are only active and available if you install OpenEdge Management. Within OpenEdge Management, any links related to the SNMP Adapter are active only if you have a license for and install the adapter.
The management console also contains the Database Administration Console, which you can use to manage and work with databases enabled for multi-tenancy.
After you install OpenEdge Management or OpenEdge Explorer, you can do one of the following to access the management console logon window:
