Restarting the Management Server

About this task

SOTI Connect provides you with a utility tool to easily restart the Management Server if needed. This is typically necessary when a new Device Type Definition (DTD) file is uploaded to SOTI Connect. You will be asked to restart the Management Server for the changes to take effect.

Note: This action can be performed with active users in the system. Users will only notice a slight delay in the SOTI Connect user interface.
