Documentation Manager for Windows

The description of Documentation Manager - Play With New Friends

Documentation Manager is a web-based application that automatically generates documentation based on the current state of the Citrix MetaFrame XP Presentation Server for Windows environment. The output is displayed in a web browser, which not only provides the ability to "Print" but also has the ability to "Save" the documentation to a file. By automatically generating complete and current documentation in a consistant, print-able, save-able format, the burden of maintaining up to date system documentation becomes as simple as opening a web page and hitting "Print".Since Documentation Manager does all the work, even administrators or help desk personnel who are not fully familiar with MetaFrame XP can get very technically detailed information in a consistent layout.The web-based design allows documentation to be performed remotely. If the web server is available on the internet and the remote user has authorization, Documentation Manager will report the results to that remote user's web browser. No longer do you have to sit in the computer room or even on-site to produce system documentation.LicensingDocumentation Manager generates information on one server farm. Documentation Manager is licensed per server farm. You can install as many copies of Documentation Manager as necessary as long as all the servers are in the same farm. The exception to this are Web Interface servers. You can install Documentation Manager on as many standalone NON-MetaFrame XP-based Web Interface servers as desired, there is no farm limitation for this option.If you have multiple server farms in production, you will need to purchase one copy of Documentation Manager per farm.
