Activating or Deactivating Execution Servers

In the menu, click Administration > Execution Environment.

Select a location to access the list of defined execution servers for that location.

In the Status column of the execution server you want to activate or deactivate, click Inactive/Active.

Important: Because the installation of an execution server requires administrative privileges, the automatic upgrade of an execution server fails if UAC is enabled. Disable UAC on all computers that host an execution server.

Note: If the version of the execution server is an invalid older version, but later than version SilkCentral Test Manager 2009 SP1, the execution server is automatically upgraded to the current Silk Central version. Silk Central shows a message concerning the upgrade in the Information column in the list of execution servers. As long as the upgrade procedure is not complete, the upgrading execution server is not used.
