Viewing Servers From the Product Console

You can administer one server at a time using the ScanMail product console.

Note: Use an account with local administrator privileges and/or an account that belongs to the ScanMail administrative group. For ScanMail with Exchange Server 2003, you can use an account that is part of the "SMEX Admin Group". For ScanMail with Exchange Server 2010 and 2007, you can use an account that is part of the Active Directory group or any Active Directory group that is part of the Exchange forest that was used to activate Server Management.

To view the product console from a local server

Click Start > Programs > Trend Micro ScanMail for Microsoft Exchange > ScanMail Management Console.
Type your user name and password.
Click Enter.

To view the product console from a remote server:

Use a Java-enabled Web browser that supports frames and access one of the following:

http://<servername>:<portnumber>/smex

https://<servername>:<portnumber>/smex

Where:

servername is the name of the server on which you installed ScanMail
port number is the port number you use to access that computer
By default, HTTP uses port 16372 and HTTPS uses port 16373.

Viewing Virtual Servers on a Cluster

Each Exchange virtual server is an independent management unit and must have its own configuration and log storage, no matter how many virtual servers are on one single cluster node. The product console should use the network name/IP address associated with the specified Exchange virtual server to control ScanMail operations on that server.

Each node has a ScanMail shortcut to allow you to view all virtual servers links. Click All programs > Trend Micro ScanMail for Microsoft Exchange > ScanMail Management Console to view all virtual servers.

Note: The virtual server links are not updated when you create or delete the ScanMail resource manually. At times components might appear out of date when viewing servers through the Server Management console. This is caused by a synchronization delay between the product console and the Server Management console. Wait a moment and the component version will refresh.
