System information
This panel shows the current utilization of system resources (disk, memory, swap space, CPU time), as well as uptime of the operating system and daemon process. If any resource becomes overused for an extended period of time, contact Wolfram Manufacturing for help.
Network
This panel shows whether the daemon process is able to connect to our server at https://central.ontakt.live/. If this shows offline but the device should be online, check that firewall rules are not blocking this traffic.
System control
This panel allows you to shut down or restart the OnTakt server hardware. Clicking either of these options will schedule the task for one minute in the future, and they can be cancelled during this minute.
Clicking "view daemon log file" can allow you to diagnose issues with the OnTakt Daemon, and view which IP addresses are accessing it.
The "update" button will check for and install operating system updates, including updates to the daemon itself. This automatically runs every week, so manual system updates are rarely needed.
Application management
Clicking "check for updates" will check for new versions of all installed applications and display them. This happens automatically every week, and the number of available updates will appear as a badge on the system tab if any are found.
To install application updates without an internet connection, click "Load update from media" instead. Read more about offline updates below.
After a new installation, buttons are shown to install each supported application. Clicking these will download and install the application. If a license has not been applied yet, this will not be possible.
For applications that have not yet been installed, the following buttons are available:
- Install
For applications that are installed but not running, the following buttons are available:
- Start
- Uninstall
- Update
- Logs
- Back Up
- Restore
For applications that are installed and running, the following buttons are available:
- Stop
- Restart
- Update
- Logs
- Back Up
- Restore
Application action explanations
- Install will download and install the application. This will fail if a license has not been applied yet.
- Start or Stop will start running or stop running an installed application.
- The Restart drop-down allows you to restart individual services of an application, or click the main Restart button to restart the entire application.
- Uninstall will move application data to a hidden location and then uninstall the application. Once this has been done, the data is only recoverable from an external backup or by a Wolfram Manufacturing service technician.
- Update will check for and then install any available updates to application services and then restart the application (or start it if it is not already running). This requires an internet connection, but offline updates are possible via a different method.
- The Logs drop-down allows you to view logs from individual services of an application, or click the main Logs button to show a combined log from all services of the application.
- Back Up will create a backup of the application's database onto an external USB flash drive. To select which flash drive to use, choose it from the "destination device" drop-down in the "Backups" section of the page and click Save.
- Restore allows restoring a backup from an external USB flash drive. If restoration fails, ensure no web browsers are accessing the application, then restart the application and try again.
The component versions reported by the application are also shown here, as well as the latest versions if updates are available. Note that the application must report these versions, so they may be slightly outdated for up to an hour after installing an update. The most accurate place to check application versions is the "versions" option in the user menu after logging into an individual application.
License
This panel shows information about the current license if one has been activated.
To apply a new license, choose the file from your computer and click Activate. All applications will be restarted automatically, but it may take a second restart to fully sync changes between applications.
Backups
See Backup and Restore.
Network configuration
If the OnTakt server is not connected to a router with DHCP enabled, you can set a static IP configuration here.
To use a static IP address:
- Switch on "Use static IP address"
- Enter the following information:
- The IP address it should use
- The network's subnet mask (usually 255.255.255.0)
- The default gateway (usually the router's IP address)
- One or two DNS servers to use (usually the router's IP address)
- Click Save
To add additional DNS servers, fill in the empty field and click Save for each server you want to add. To remove a DNS server, clear its text field and click Save.
To revert to using DHCP, switch off "Use static IP address" and click Save.
NTP server
If the OnTakt server cannot reach the internet, you can specify a local NTP server address here to keep the clock synchronized. This is important for ensuring that timestamps of parts, inspections, etc. are accurate.
To use the operating system's default NTP server via the internet, clear this box and click Save.
