I'll answer my own question. YES, performing the extra clicks, will save map changes via web interface. Hopefully, next revision will eliminate the extra 'submit changes from map'.

Unless I do a save all, or save as, on the server running WUG, either a restart or unexpected shutdown will result in changes not saved. Windows 2000 server running WUG 6.02. -----Original Message----- From: Lyle Dove [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, October 15, 2001 12:22 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Welsh, Jeff Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] Web Interface Saving Map Problem I am having trouble saving the additions I make to the maps from the web interface after I have submitted changes. I did find the following FAQ.... ------------------------- Question/Problem: When running the WhatsUp Gold service, I'd like to be able to make changes (add/remove hosts, change IP addresses) to the maps from the web browser. I'm able to do this without any problems until the server or service gets restarted then all of my changes are lost. Is there any way to save modifications to the maps from the web interface? Answer/Solution: Make sure after you submit the device setting change that you go to Map View, then go to Settings. Make sure "Write map to disk" is checked. Then submit this form. Submitting in both places is necessary to save your changes to the map file. Please note that the console application should not be open when the service is running. This could cause changes in one interface to overwrite changes in the other. Document #: Revision Date: WG-19990813-DM02 08/17/01 --------------------------------- But I am not displaying maps on my web interface. If I run the program itself, and just minimize the application, it appears to save it correctly. It may not if the program crashes though due to the fact when I close the program, it asks to save changes to the maps that have had changes made via the web interface. I can't do this when the service is run though. Is there another way to save the changes to the maps via the web interface even though I don't have the maps display showing. It doesn't really benefit me for my application. Here's my configuration/scenario... Dell P4-1.4ghz 512mb RAM Windows 2000 Server Monitoring of Cisco Routers via ICMP/SNMP polls. Roughly 500 at this point. BTW, what is the maximum items that WUG can handle as far as a polling system? Or is that more system/network dependent?
