Overview of the Data Management Servers Riser Bar

The Data Management Servers riser bar is the main administrative interface for DataFlux Data Management Servers. After you are connected to a server, you can perform various administrative tasks, such as importing jobs from DataFlux Data Management Studio to the server for execution, or registering DSN connections on the server. For more information about connecting to this server, see Connecting to Data Management Servers.

The Data Management Servers Riser Bar contains the following elements:
