Progress OpenEdge Server preferences
You can set several Progress OpenEdge Server preferences related to publishing and to the Progress OpenEdge Server Monitor view.
You can access the Progress OpenEdge Server preferences page in several different ways, such as:
*From the Progress Developer Studio for OpenEdge menu bar, by choosing Window > Preferences > Progress OpenEdge > Server.
*From the Progress OpenEdge Server Monitor view, by clicking the dropdown arrow on the view toolbar and selecting Preferences.
You can set these Server preferences:
WebSpeed Broker URL
Set the Web browser URL for OpenEdge Explorer.
Trim agents on publish
Select this option to trim all agents automatically from the broker whenever a publish event occurs. Whenever modules are published to the server, all the server's agents will be trimmed immediately after the publish event succeeds. If the publish event fails for any reason, the agents will not be trimmed.
Note: This option is enabled by default.
Remove deleted files and folders on publish
Select this option to remove all files and folders from the publish location on publishing. This will remove from the server any files or folders that you have removed from the module.
Note: This option is enabled by default.
Remove all files and folders when cleaning server publish directory
Select this option to remove all files and folders following the completion of clean operations.
Note: This option is enabled by default.
Publish empty folders
Select this option if you want to publish folders even if they are empty.
Note: This option is enabled by default.
Run/Debug - Update properties from server before starting/launching
Select this option to use the broker's defined properties rather than the server's launch configuration. (When a server is started, all the server's launch configuration properties are used for the broker on the remote machine. Selecting this option prevents the overwriting of the broker properties with the server properties.)
Note: This option is cleared by default.
Publish filters
Select one or more items in the filter list to avoid publishing specific resources. To remove a filter, select it in the Publish Filters table and then click Remove.
Filter
To add a filter, click Add (next to the Publish Filters table) and then type the filter expression in this field. Then click Update.
Server status refresh interval (in seconds)
Specify the refresh delay interval for server status updates.
Note: The default is 15 seconds.
Enable Agent State tab
Select this option to show the tab in the Progress OpenEdge Server Monitor view.
Note: This option is cleared by default.
