As an administrator setting up the system, servers must be created first. Create collectors that are assigned to servers. Run the collectors to populate the server manifests. After these tasks are completed, build engineers create projects with selectors that determine where to run project steps.
Each server resource points to a host that has an agent installed on it. When adding a server resource, you describe how the Management Console accesses and uses a specific host.
Item | Required or option | Description |
---|---|---|
Server authentication | Required | Specifies the login name and password to use with the server. |
Collector | Optional | Defines the properties that the system collects from the server, in addition to default properties. |
Environment | Optional | Specifies environment variables that are assigned when a project is run on the server. |
To manage servers on the Management Console, click Servers in the left menu.
The Details tab provides the following fields:
The Manifest tab displays various server properties. It provides a default set of properties. You can include additional properties by using a collector.
The Test Results tab indicates the status of the last test of the connection between the Management Console and the server.
The Notes® tab provides a convenient location for storing and sharing comments about a server.
