Description

Resolution:
The GDI portion of RTmon (rtmongdi) has been deprecated as of SmartSockets 6.8.0 [GA] with the exception of the Microsoft Windows platform. The Windows GDI will also be deprecated in a future release of the product. (It is still available as of SmartSockets 6.8.1[GA])  
Where the GDI no longer exists you now must use the command line interface.
(NOTE:  Using the Monitoring API the developer can build a graphical or browser based interface which meets their specific needs)

You can always use an older version of SmartSockets on a separate node to use the RTmon GDI but it will not be formally supported.
