How do I access the Management Portal on a mac?

#System Administration

I installed the Cache client along with Atelier on my mac.

My question is:

How do I access the Management Portal on a mac?

My Atelier stand-alone app allows me to use the Cache instance, but how do I get to the Management Portal to set up security and create new namespaces, etc.?

Also, where to I check to see when Cache is actually running?

Thanks.

You can find the link to Management Portal in the documentation:  http://docs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY=GSA_using_portal 

To see if the instance is running: I suggest getting familiar with the ccontrol command from terminal: http://docs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY=GSA_using_instance#GSA_using_instance_control

For example, ccontrol list will list basic information about your instance. This is an example on my (Linux) computer where you can see that the first instance is down and the second is running: 

amarin> ccontrol list

Configuration 'C152'
    directory:    /home/amarin/intersystems/cache20152
    versionid:    2015.2.1.705.0
    datadir:      /home/amarin/intersystems/cache20152
    conf file:    cache.cpf  (SuperServer port = 56778, WebServer = 57778)
    status:       down, last used Fri Jul  7 09:37:47 2017

Configuration 'C161'
    directory:    /home/amarin/intersystems/cache20161
    versionid:    2016.1.0.610.0
    datadir:      /home/amarin/intersystems/cache20161
    conf file:    cache.cpf  (SuperServer port = 56777, WebServer = 57777)
    status:       running, since Wed Nov  8 11:33:16 2017
    state:        ok

InterSystems delivered Cache distributive as a DMG file until 2016.2. And fortunately, they decided do not do it anymore.

But all the time, it was also available as tar.gz. Which is working in exactly the same way as any other Linux version.

So, you can use ccontrol tool, to see a list of instances, their status and start or stop.

csession can be used as a terminal in windows.

To open System Management Portal, you can just this URL in a Browser - http://localhost:57772/csp/sys/UtilHome.csp
