Defining the Projects (Magic xpi 3.x)
If you are using the legacy Monitor to view multiple projects, you have to define the projects folder that the Monitor should use.
To define the location of the projects folder:
-
From the Environment menu, select Multi Projects. This opens the Multiple Projects dialog box.
-
Enter information in the fields as described in the table below:
|
|
|
|
Projects Folder
|
You have to enter the name and full path of the main projects folder. You can click the browse button to select the folder. This field also supports environment variables.
|
|
Server Address
|
You should enter the address of the server you want to monitor, including the host name and the port number in the format Hostname/Port.
For example: ExamplePcXP/3343.
|
Note:
|
The address you enter here should be the same address as defined in the server properties in the Magic xpi Studio.
|
|
|
|
Monitor Password
|
This is the password for accessing the server engine. You should retain the default password that is supplied and only change the password if you have changed the underlying engine’s password.
|
|
Refresh Rate (seconds)
|
You should enter a number to define, in seconds, how often the information is updated in the Monitor view.
|
When you click OK, the Monitor performs a validity check to verify that the server and password information you entered is correct. Once the Monitor has successfully connected to the server, the projects that are connected to the server are shown in the Magic xpi Monitor – Projects View window. The projects are displayed in a list that indicates whether they are running or not.
|
Note:
|
If you entered incorrect information in the Multiple Projects dialog box, the Monitor displays a message indicating that it could not connect to the server. You are returned to the dialog box to modify the details that you entered. You should check that the information in each field is correct. This is because the Monitor cannot ascertain which information is incorrect. The validity check only checks the connection, not which information is correct.
