Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
Progress Dynamics Administration

Overview of session configuration tasks

When you create a new session type or extend an existing session type, you specify the following:

The Progress Dynamics managers that need to run for the session type.
Any session properties for the session type.
Any required session services. (Session services for running applications typically include a Repository and an application databases referenced as physical and logical services.)

To configure a new session:

Create logical and physical service records in the Repository for any new session services, such as databases or Web services.
Create records in the Repository for any new session properties.
Create records in the Repository for any new managers.
Create a new session type in the Repository.
Generate or regenerate your configuration XML file.
Create a shortcut icon that uses your configuration XML file and that points to the configuration information you specified for the session type.
You might later import your generated configuration XML file after making any manual changes to it that you want synchronized with the Repository.
