About Platform Manager

The Platform Manager provides diagnostics for System Platform Galaxy applications. You can view run-time status of some system objects and perform actions upon those objects. These actions include:

• Setting platforms and engines in an executable or idle mode.

• Starting and stopping platforms and engines.

• Removing platforms from the local computer.

The Platform Manager is an extension snap-in to the Operations Control System Management Console (OCMC). The OCMC is a Microsoft Management Console (MMC) container snap-in for all of the diagnostic and management utilities for your Galaxy application.

Other extension snap-ins include the Galaxy Database Manager, the Log Viewer, and the Operations Integration Server Manager.
