Hoster view

When you select Hoster view in the Organization dropdown list, all windows in the user interface are affected. In general, this view shows aggregated data for all organizations.

However, some data is only available in Hoster view, such as the following:

  • Export Settings: In a multi-organization system, SMTP-related information is only displayed in Hoster view.
  • Administration > Tools: The SESSION TIME OUT setting is available only in Hoster view.

In addition, there are some special cases where you cannot view administration data in Hoster view, and can only view data for a specific organization, such as the following:

  • Component Authentication
  • Automatic Updates
  • End User Notifications
  • Periodic Scan

Many of the windows that display aggregated data for all organizations have some special features when displaying data in Hoster view. In general, in Hoster view, these windows have an additional column or field, and require that you specify the organization in order to add the item. Several examples are provided below. The examples below are not all-inclusive.
