Note that these are in fact about the *server* up time, not your application server. Indeed, one new feature of 7.3 is a newly available "copy to clipboard" button, allowing you to copy this info to help in generating support cases (with FR support folks or others).īut FR 7.3 also adds a few new kinds of information about your environment, on the page's "Overview" tab.įirst, notice the new "server start time" and "server up time", which are each shown under the "Operating System Details" (top left) section of the page. The Server Info page has a few tabs of info including an overview of your server, application server, JVM runtime info and properties values, and OS environment variables.Īll these can be used to understand the nature of your environment. Have you noticed that recent versions of FusionReactor offer a new "Server Information" page? It's found on the "FusionReactor" menu (which many people also never even notice, at the top left of the FR UI). For more on these settings, see the "i" icon next to each option in the FR UI, or see the FusionReactor documentation. This and the others aid in meeting GDPR and other security/privacy requirements. Previous FR versions have offered various ways (and an increasing number) of options for obfuscating data, starting with FR6's addition of optional obfuscation of SQL text ( JDBC>Settings>Transaction Settings) and for MongoDB ( Transactions>Settings>Mongo Transactions), to FR 6.2's optional obfuscation of request data (of form post headers, as enabled in Requests>Settings>Request Formatting), to FR7's obfuscation of credit card data (also on that Request Formatting tab of Requests>Settings), and more.įR 7.3 now adds the option of obfuscating the request IP address, enabled also on that same Requests Formatting tab. Still more optional obfuscation of GDPR/privacy data
BTW, that technote covers not just 7.3 but each of the prior FR 7 releases and point releases, which is helpful if you may be skipping over releases (you only need ever install the latest, if that's what you want, as they are cumulative).
You can find them (and three dozen bug fixes) listed also in the FR "release notes" technote ( ). In this post, I highlight over a dozen of its new features and improvements.
And I may revise the content as necessary.įusionReactor ( my favorite server monitor) continues its onward march of refinement and improvement with its latest release which came out last week, 7.3. Corrections are welcome, in the comments. Same with links and subsequent comments from myself or others. Some content may be outdated-though not necessarily.
