Hi! We are glad to add that WMSPanel now allows making group operations like adding new application to several servers at once or changing applications settings. Once an administrator chooses to create a new application or to edit one, he may do it on multiple servers just by clicking on their names. This might be extremely useful to those admins who rule dozens of servers on a daily basis. ---

Hi, Check out [Wowza server performance metrics](http://blog.wmspanel.com/2013/01/monitoring-wowza-cpu-ram-metrics.html) available at WMSPanel. It has real-time and retrospective charts for CPU, physical memory and swap memory load. It does not require JMX as it uses native Java methods used by our Wowza add-on. It’s perfectly displayed on desktop, **iOS** and **Android** browsers. You can see it in action for your servers after free service [sign up](https://wmspanel.com/account/sign_up). ---

Wowza server admins may now get email **alerts for CPU and RAM level** of consumption. Each server in the panel may be assigned a threshold for both RAM and CPU. When the threshold is overrun, a notification is sent to designated users and it’s repeated every hour until all is settled. Since any [WMSPanel](https://wmspanel.com/) account many have any number of Wowza servers, you can monitor infrastructure of any size.
