Server Dashboard
Learning Focus
By the end of this lesson you will know how to access and interpret the real-time server dashboard in WebAdmin.
Accessing the Dashboard
- Log into WebAdmin at
https://your-server-ip:7080 - The Dashboard page shows real-time server statistics
Key Metrics on the Dashboard
| Metric | What It Shows | What to Watch For |
|---|---|---|
| Requests/sec | Current throughput | Sudden drops or spikes |
| Active Connections | Current concurrent connections | Approaching max limits |
| SSL Connections | Active HTTPS sessions | Heavy SSL load |
| PHP Workers | Running lsphp processes | All workers busy (bottleneck) |
| Bandwidth | Current data transfer rate | Bandwidth saturation |
| Uptime | Time since last restart | Unexpected restarts |
Using the Dashboard Effectively
- Check the dashboard before and after configuration changes to see the impact
- Monitor during peak traffic hours to identify bottlenecks
- Use as a first check when users report performance issues
Key Takeaways
- The dashboard provides real-time visibility into server health.
- Monitor requests/sec, active connections, and PHP workers as primary indicators.
- Use it as your first diagnostic step for performance issues.
