Editing Valware: A Comprehensive Monitoring and Analysis Tool (section)

=== Configuration ===

Valware can be configured using a configuration file located at:

*   '''macOS:''' <tt>/Applications/Valware.app/Contents/Resources/config.json</tt>
*   '''Windows:''' <tt>C:\Program Files\Valware\config.json</tt>
*   '''Linux:''' <tt>/etc/valware/config.json</tt>

The configuration file is in JSON format. Here is an example configuration:

<pre>
<nowiki>
{
  "api_key": "YOUR_API_KEY",
  "server_url": "https://api.valware.example.com",
  "monitoring_interval": 60,
  "alerting": {
    "cpu_threshold": 90,
    "memory_threshold": 95
  }
}
</nowiki>
</pre>

*   '''api\_key:''' Your unique Valware API key.
*   '''server\_url:''' The URL of the Valware server.
*   '''monitoring\_interval:''' The interval (in seconds) at which system metrics are collected.
*   '''alerting:''' Thresholds for CPU and memory usage that trigger alerts.

To apply the changes, restart the Valware service:

*   '''macOS:''' Restart the Valware application.
*   '''Windows:''' Restart the Valware service using the Services application.
*   '''Linux:''' <tt>sudo systemctl restart valware</tt>

==== Web-Based Management Console (Optional) ====

For easier configuration and monitoring, Valware supports an optional web-based management console. To install it, follow these steps:

<pre>
<nowiki>
# Install required Python packages
sudo apt install python3-pip  # for Debian/Ubuntu
sudo yum install python3-pip  # for Fedora/CentOS
pip3 install flask

# Download the management console script
wget https://valware.example.com/downloads/valware-console.py

# Run the management console
python3 valware-console.py
</nowiki>
</pre>

The management console will be accessible at <tt>http://localhost:5000</tt>.  Configure authentication for this console to prevent unauthorized access in a production environment.
