Advanced
Management |
This button allows to manage the advanced settings like listening ports,
if the name or the ip address has to be used, the file integrity, the
transfer compression (This last option is not available for the local
Pdm server). It also allows to manage database.
Use:
Click on the Advanced options
button from the Manage Pdm Server
window.
Enter the server listening port if needed.
|
Default values for listening
ports are 8086 for the Pdm server or 8001 for a local Pdm
server. This port needs to be opened
in the inlet and outlet rules of the firewall, on the server
as well as on each workstation. (Only
on the workstation in the case of a Local Pdm server). This port should be changed
only in case of a conflict with another application using
this same port. |
Check
the Use machine name option.
This option allows you to use the server's IP address but not its
name, which can be useful when the server has 2 network cards and
the file server is simultaneously used on 2 different networks. For
example, one network in 192.168.1.... and one network in 176.25.6....
can be used at the same time for the same projects.
Check
the Use centralized workspace option.
(This option is not available for
the Local Pdm Server).
All new documents non checked in, under modification or saved, are
in the workspace of the user. With this option, this workspace is
on the server. It has several advantages:
|
This option can be checked
or unchecked at any time. If it is checked during the
use, all new or newly checked out documents will be centralized
to the server. If it is unchecked during
the use, all new or newly checked out documents will be saved
in the local workspace of each workstation. This option is grayed with
the Primary Pdm Server execution mode to avoid unwanted files
exchanges on the primary server for each file backup. |
Select the Database.
|
This
windows groups all the database available on the server with the
size and creation date of Database.
Rename...
: Allows to rename the
Database Delete... : Allows
to delete the Database Check... : allows
to check the integrity Convert...
: allows to convert the ServerPdmLocal in ServerPdm. (Not available from the
Local Pdm Server, the conversion
has to be done from the Pdm server). |
Validate.

- Maximum SQL
replication lag : In
some cases like when importing a big library dictionary (.TopDicPkg)
from a Secondary, the database replication might have some
trouble to be done. This case is extrem because the dictionary
import is very costy because there is a massive data insertion
in the SQL database. It is possible to increase this limit
of 15 minutes by defining a « Maximum SQL replication lag.».
It is still recommended to import libraries directly on the
Primary Pdm server.
