Unable to find Server Administration on Mysql.

When I open the Mysql workbench, the screen I see bears no resemblance to the one in the tutorial. Server Administration isn't an option. In Library, I found a Server Administration Documentation link, but clicking on it returned "404 File Not Found".

Mine was a little different as well. If you have a connection running, and see your query module, to the left you should see a tab that says "Management" and one that says "Schemas". Any Administration you will need for this tutorial can be found in the "Management" tab. Click on "Startup/Shutdown" under "INSTANCE".

You won't find it on the right side as he suggests in the video, you will have to open a connection by clicking on the plus sign next to "MySQL Connections" from the start screen, if you haven't already created a connection, or click on the grey rectangle identifying your connection under "MySQL Connections". He's running an out of date version. Then you can proceed with my above answer.
