# Configuring an External Engine Daemon Admin Tool

It is possible to configure an external administration or management tool or system that can be opened from GridServer’s Administration Tool. When configured, you can open the tool from the Engine Daemon Admin page with an item in the Actions control. Selecting the new item opens a URL to the external tool. A set of runtime macros enable you to further customize the URL.

To configure an external Engine Daemon Admin Tool:

| 1. | In the GridServer Administration Tool, go to Admin > System Admin > Manager Configuration > Engines and Clients.

| 2. | In the Daemon Admin External Tool URL box, enter the URL to your external tool.

| 3. | The following runtime macros can be used: `${DaemonID}`, `${UserName}`, `${IP}`, `${Status}`, `${PrimaryDirector}`, `${SecondaryDirector}` and `${OS}`. For example, `http://example.com/grid/reports.py?${DaemonID}` might be used to look up reports for an Engine Daemon with an external query tool.

| 4. | In the Daemon Admin External Tool Name box, enter a description of the configured tool.

To use an external tool, select it from the Actions control next to an Engine Daemon on the Engine Daemon Admin page. It is named “Link to” plus the name you defined in the Daemon Admin External Tool Name box.
