Problem:
[JFERNANDES][Server Manager] The application should be more intuitive the way it works. Right now it's quite confusing because too many things are available in the main area.
The main area should just allow to add and manage multiple server instances and functionality that can be applied to multiple servers.
The top menu should be Groups and Server Options (instead of server tasks).
The server options should have two kind of operations:
a) options that are applied to a single server
1) Edit server config
2) Show server settings ( datasources/ mappings etc)
3) Server Monitor
4) Administrator
b) options that can be applied to several instances at the same time
1) Deploy Hotfix
2) Clear Template Cache
3) Server monitor several instances in the same graph (trough Series)
4) Conpare Configs
5) Restart instances (for fast cluster restart for example)
option a.1 should open the actual server config editor (Edit Server)
option a.2 should open a new AIR nativeWindow with the server settings (what we have actually in the left side)
going for nativeWindows should avoid dragging popups into unreachable areas and locking the application. It will also allow that once some monitor get locked (disconnected for example) the full application get locked too.
