I have developed a new website, hosted on BA5 to help the Game Leaders (and admins on your request) manage the game servers we have on BA5.  

At the moment the supported games are CS:Go, ARMA 3 and Assetto Corsa but this will be extended as we migrate the other game servers over from BA4.  To log into the new website you will need a username and password, please send me a PM if your game is supported and you would like access and don't have it or if you would like to nominate one of your admins to have access.  The features available are game specific but at the moment you can shutdown and startup all of the supported games.  For CS:Go and ARMA 3, once shutdown the game servers can be updated and you can view the previous upgrade log.  For CS:Go there is also the ability to retrieve the active server status as will be shown in one of the following screen shots.  

To access the website point your browser at https://77.108.135.2/ba5/ You will get a warning about the certificate as it is self signed but just accept it and you will be presented with the login screen:

Once logged in you will get a view of the games you manage

To stop the game server just click on the Green area for the game and you'll be asked to confirm you want to shut it down. Once shutdown the option available may change as some things can only be done with the server stopped (like updates).

Clicking on Update will update the server in the background but will display the output in the box under the game. Due to buffering this is delayed and display chunks at a time but it will let you know when it's finished so don't refresh the page and just let it do it's thing :)

Once you see the "Update Complete" message in the red area then it's safe to start the server by clicking on the red.  The box will automatically turn Green when the service has started.

My plan is that with this and the FTP access, I won't be needed for routine work on the game servers :D
