As far as I know Astaro doesn't have multi-unti configuration.
This is something we'd like to see as well. So, keep an eye out.

Believe UT has a roadmap for that or at least has a desire.
What exactly are you looking for?
- Ability to select multiple installs and set settings universally (IE. no auto update)
- Ability to take a baseline module configuration and apply to specified UT install (nothing hardware or certificate specific)
Is this just a monitoring option?
- HDD failed
- HDD Nearing capacity
- pull UT version
- Network information
- hostname
- certificate
The beatings shall continue until morale improves!
But yeah, detail of what you'd like to see would be helpful.

Monitoring options: Performance monitors of various stats (throughput, HD space, latest code, network information, etc) for each UT appliance
As an MSP this would be ideal.

Available with other UTM products.
For us SMB consultants/VARs....it would be very helpful to have a dashboard of our Untangle clients status.
Information I'd find useful...uptime/outages, CPU load, RAM load, # sessions, traffic graphs(incoming and outgoing), VPN tunnel status and history (for those clients with multi-site WANs), virus status.

View the demo. This is centralized monitoring. We're talking about centralized management. I know they sound similar and astaro using marketing speak, but they are quite different.

Yeah, a dashboard that shows us what UTs are online is just the tip of management. And full centralized management is critical if we're going to get a half decent clustering offering going.

Yeah, we'll likely build centralized monitoring as a phase 1 of centralized management.

If its on the roadmap, what is the expected delivery time. Yes, I would consider Central Monitoring and Central Management different. I would love to see the monitoring first, followed shortly by management
