OpenDJ comes with two commands for monitoring server processes and tasks. The status command displays basic information about the local server, similar to what is seen in the default window of the Control Panel. The manage-tasks command lets you manage tasks scheduled on a server, such as nightly backup.
The status command takes administrative credentials to read the configuration, as does the Control Panel.
