Add Server Dialog

When you click the Add button in the Configuration Server Choices section of either the New Application Properties or Application Properties dialogs, the Add Server dialog is displayed.

The Add Server dialog enables you to select a server workstation from the network to add to the Configuration Server Choices list for a remote application.

Using the Add Server dialog, you can add a workstation as a primary configuration server or a backup server for a remote application in one of three ways:

•    Select a server from the Machine Name drop-down list;

•    Enter the server's IP address in the Machine Name field; or

•    Enter the server's machine name in the Machine Name field.

Note: It is strongly recommended that you use names rather than IP addresses when specifying configuration servers or service servers, especially in dual-homed situations or in networks where dynamic IPs are assigned.

Once you select a server workstation and click the OK button, VTS adds the selected server to the Configuration Server Choices list.

Detailed information on remote applications and servers can be found in Introduction to Remote Applications.
