Enabling/Disabling Z-Ray

This topic describes how to work with Z-Ray's various access modes:

  • Enabled Mode - The default mode when launching Zend Server with the development profile. In this mode, Z-Ray collects data for all requests made to the web server.
  • Selective Mode - This mode allows secured access to Z-Ray for specific IPs and URLs, and for a specific time duration, and is ideal for production environments.
  • Disabled Mode - The default mode when launching Zend Server with on of the two production profiles (Single/Cluster). This mode disables Z-Ray data collection for every page located on your web server. Z-Ray Snapshots for URL Insight however, will not be affected.

Note:

The Z-Ray can be enabled and disabled at any point as long as Zend Server was launched. If Zend Server has not been launched, you will be asked to do so before being able to work with Z-Ray.
