Update Release 1 (26/05/10)

  • APP:CA002 Cpu Analyzer Index (zero based) must be greater than or equal to zero and less than the size of the argument list.
    A proper message is now shown to indicate that the CPU is overloaded.
  • Isn’t possible to change the network card, Apply button doesn’t enable
    The button now gets enabled and selecting a card should work.
  • Documentation on using the mail functionality in the Communication dialog has been increased.
  • Server: Nag screen contains control characters
    Control characters have been removed.
  • The part of the add in that shows the add in is registered says: ‘Registrd to:Name’
    Changed to: ‘Registered to: Name’
  • Sent emails are german and contains formatting code \\r\\n in the text, right before the text \””In der registrierten Version …\”” “
    Control characters have been removed.
  • Server: Console crashes when invalid license file is on the server
    An extra check is done and handled.
  • Server: Settings aren’t all saved
    Now when changing settings (like events,…) these are saved as well.
  • Server: In some cases, selecting the networkcard wasn’t persisted
    Now when changing the networkcard in the config settings the selected card is saved.
  • Server: Error when starting ‘There was a problem while checking the registration file:The device is not connected.’
    Now an extra check is done and this error should be handled.
  • Server: Checking the last item in the list of Application Logs (Config tab) doesn’t submit the change, isn’t saved
    Now you can select the last item and save the change too.
  • There was a problem while checking the registration file:The type initializer for ‘Microsoft.HomeServer.Controls.ShareManager’ threw an exception.
    This led to problems that mails were sent as unregistered, while the license file was present.
    Now an extra check is done and this error should be handled, in some cases it could still occur.
    If this is the case, send a mail to support@asoft-ware.com for a workaround.
  • Server: When a user chose to ignore messages, in the WHS Console then these messages were also reported.
    Now when you choose to ignore messages, they will not be reported anymore.
  • Server: In some cases where there was high memory consumption it could be that AdminiMe reported this, while the treshold was not yet reached.
    This was not a bug but the algorithm has been changed slightly so that it is more sensitive.
  • The links to the registration page/AutoExit page on the console toolbar where opened locally in the console
    Now they are opened on the client itself.
  • You can now disable the monitoring of a disk’ usage, by setting the treshold to 0.
  • The disk id’s in the disk overview tab are now padded with a zero and sorted correctly
  • The disk rate is now converted to the best format (Kb/s,MB/s,…)

    One hell of an addin, thanks asoft!

  • mcavity

    looks pretty but your home web pages wont render correctly in firefox.

  • http://www.asoft.be ASoft

    Yep, some people reported it already, I’m looking into the problem…

    Thanks,
    Nick

  • Ener

    I hate nagware, I never support nagware. I did not buy a WHS to get nagged each time I click one of the icon by mistake, at least move the nag triger to the actual plugin screen.

    Uninstalled, thanks anyway…

  • Fedcis

    I had issues with it, so I had to uninstall. It would make the console unresponsive. I will try again after a cpu upgrade.

  • joedornan

    Fantastic addin. love it. will have to consider whether to uninstall some other addins with duplicate functionality (like disk management).

    Love the email reports of errors function as well. It’s just that my machine now reports: “Fatal APP:CA002 Cpu Analyzer Index (zero based) must be greater than or equal to zero and less than the size of the argument list.” and I don’t know how to investigate this problem. Any tips?

    Hi Joe,

    That error is an issue that will be fixed in the next update release.
    But it does mean something… ;-)
    It means that your CPU has been running too long at a certain threshold level. (like you configured)
    So have a look in the Task Manager to see which process is using up all your processing power…

  • Wonko

    It’s the same issue on my WHS (but with a German version – that’s why I was searching for the wrong term).

    I have checked it and the “too long running” process is the console, started on the server when logged in via RDP – together with a high percentage of up to 60%!

    BTW: I have an HP MediaSmart EX470 with the original 500GB + 2x 1,5TB and an upgraded RAM of 2GB.

  • robfalco

    I had hardware issues right after install 3 external esata drives in 4 bay storage failed. Rebooting the harddrives came back up but then failed again. I uninstalled and server back to normal. Anyone else have external drive issues? might be coincidence but not risking again.

  • Jman

    I think the HW failures are pure coincidence.
    I also have external drives but no problems here.
    Up until now it has behaved very well and even solved a problem for me!

    Some process was consuming a lot of memory/CPU and slowed down the server, but it was only when adminime notified me of this that I was aware of the problem, and now: solved :-D

  • robfalco

    I think they were hardware failures(external hardrives) i will try it again.

    Unable to remove old version to install new version!
