# Server & File Monitoring

When a server is added in Settings -> Servers, they become visible in the App's Monitor window. From here, you can monitor the status of the server and all of its files, as well as performing operations such as **opening**, **closing** and **connecting** to the file.

This gives you a complete overview of all your servers and files without the need to have multiple FileMaker Admin Console windows open in a browser.

The server's cloud icon indicates the status of the server (FileMaker Server Admin API and Devin Server API). A green cloud indicates no issues. A red cloud means that the connection to the server's Devin API failed or that FileMaker Server is not running.
