Edit Server - General

Use this page to change the basic configurable attributes of a server.

Warning: Changing the properties of a registered server may cause application connection errors and loss of data.

Note: For more information about the configurable attributes of servers, see the chapter Configuration in your Configuration and Administration Guide.

Top

Name

Specify the unique name of the server, up to 8 characters. You can change the name only if the server has the status "Stopped". You cannot include angle brackets (<>) or ampersands (&) in the name.

Top

System Directory

Specify the location for system work files output by the Enterprise Server, such as the console log, and trace and dump diagnostics files. This directory cannot be shared between Enterprise Servers. On Windows the default is C:\Documents and Settings\user-ID\My Documents\Micro Focus\Net Express 5.0\WORKAREA\es-name\console.log (where user-ID is the user account that is running Enterprise Server, and es-name is the name of the enterprise server). On UNIX the default is /var/mfcobol/es es-name.

If you specify a directory in this field, that directory must exist; Enterprise Server does not create it for you.

Note: On Windows, if you are running the Directory Server as a service that logs on as the Local System account (LocalService), any Enterprise Server that it starts will also run under that account. Hence, the default location of the System Directory will be C:\Documents and Settings\LocalService\My Documents\Micro Focus\Net Express 5.0\WORKAREA\es-name. By default, Windows hides the LocalService subdirectory of Documents and Settings. In order to view this directory, you must configure your Windows Explorer so that: Show hidden files and folders is set, and Hide protected operating system files is not set.

Top

Startup Options

Use these fields to specify the server configuration you want when the server first starts up. Any changes you make to these fields while a server is running do not take effect until the next time you start the server.

Top

Shared Memory Pages

Specify the number of shared pages in memory to be reserved for all the processes that run in the Directory Server. Each page is 4 KB long.

Top

Service Execution Processes

Specify the number of service execution processes that are to be started at server initialization.

Top

Shared Memory Cushion

Specify the number of 4KB pages that should be reserved from the shared memory pages to allow the server to continue processing when the shared memory allocation is too small for the operational requirements of the server. The range is 1 through the number of shared memory pages.

Top

Requested Licenses

Specify the number of licenses this enterprise server requires.

Top

Show Local Console

Check this if you want to see a text window containing enterprise server messages while the server is running. the messages are written to a file called console.log, in the directory specified in System Directory. You can see the text window only on the machine running the enterprise server. The system messages are also available on the Enterprise Server Console page.

Top

Allow Dynamic Debugging

Check this if you want to use a local or remote IDE to debug applications running in this enterprise server.
