Adding a New Console

Before you can perform other tasks with the Build Forge Frequency plug-in, you must add at least one console to your configuration. After you add a console, the system gets a list of projects from the console: the projects you can run based on your login privileges with that console.

To add a new console:

  1. Right-click in the Console Explorer pane to display a pop-up menu.
  2. Select the New Console option. The system adds a new console to the list, with a name "New Console" or "New Console 1", etc.
  3. Select the new console, then right-click and select Properties. The system displays the Properties dialog box.
  4. Fill out the fields in the dialog box and click the OK button.
    • Build Forge Console Name: The name to display in the Console Explorer list.
    • Build Forge Console URL: The URL for the Build Forge console.
    • Port Number: The system provides the default value of 80; change this only if you know that the console you are configuring uses a different port.
    • User: The Build Forge username to use when logging into this console.
    • Password: The password for the Build Forge username.
