Module Management

 

All module configuration is performed under Configuration > Modules. Note that this section is used solely for adding, removing, and restarting modules. Modules integrate their settings into the gateway configuration tree, and therefore do not offer settings in this section.

 

Installing, Upgrading and Uninstalling Modules

Modules can be installed by selecting Install or Upgrade a Module below the module list. To uninstall a module, click uninstall next to its entry in the table.

 

Modules are hot-swappable, so these actions can be performed while the system is running. Furthermore, the isolated nature of modules ensures that performing one of these actions will only affect that particular module, and any modules which depend on it. For example, uninstalling the SQL Bridge module will not affect any running Vision module clients.

 

Restarting a Module

Modules can be restarted by clicking the restart button next to their entries. As mentioned above, the isolated nature of modules means that the other modules will not be affected by the restart (unless they depend on that particular module).

 

Module Status

The installed module list also provides some basic information about the state of the module. The version, license and state are all displayed in the list. Module licensing is performed centrally in System > Licensing, so the values here are only for information purposes.
