How to check server availability in Applications Manager?

You can check the availability of a server in Applications Manager using two methods:

Ping Command:
1. Open command prompt in the machine in which you have installed Applications Manager.
2. Execute the following command:
ping <IP ADDRESS/HOSTNAME>
where <IP ADDRESS/HOSTNAME> is the target server's IP address/hostname.
Note: By default, ping is executed with the server's hostname.
When hostname is not available for the target server, the IP address can be used.
3. If ping succeeds, it means that the server is up and available.
Sample output:

If ping doesn't succeed, you can check the same using telnet command. Check the steps given below.

Telnet Command:
1. Open command prompt in the machine in which you have installed Applications Manager.
2. Execute the following command:
telnet <IP ADDRESS/HOSTNAME> <PORT>
where <IP ADDRESS/HOSTNAME> is the target server's IP address/hostname and <PORT> is the target server's SSH port.
Note: By default, the default SSH port is 22, WMI port is 135 and Telnet port is 23.
3. If you receive a response, it means the server is up and available. 
Sample Output:

4. If you don't receive a response, the server is down and unavailable.
But to ensure that the problem isn't because of your network, check if there are any network connectivity issues.
