Servers that use offer additional caching services and performance enhancements. To take advantage of these benefits, must be enabled and configured on your workstation so that any open project view can take advantage of .
The right end of the application status bar displays the current status of on your workstation. The words and icons on the status bar for are as follows:
Indicates that MPX is available and enabled for the currently selected project view.
If Web Edition can use the default client profile for an MPX-enabled server and, therefore, take advantage of MPX, this icon appears in front of the server configuration’s name in the browser window.
Enables your workstation to use StarTeamMPX if it is available on the server. Changing this check box does not affect open projects. StarTeamMPX is enabled by default.
Enables automatic refresh of the application window by way of MPX, with options for setting the minimum and maximum delay times between refreshes. The default minimum is 30 seconds, and the default maximum is 0– seconds. If this option is unchecked, you must refresh manually ( Shift+F5 .)
When Automatic Refresh is enabled, after every change to the view, StarTeam waits a minimum number of seconds before refreshing. That means that if changes are infrequent, the application performs a refresh almost immediately. However, if changes are frequent, the minimum refresh timer is constantly being reset and never reaches the number of seconds set for a refresh. In such cases, the next refresh occurs when the maximum number of seconds between refreshes forces a refresh.
Automatic refresh is designed to perform even if the client is minimized. When Automatic refresh enabled, if the network is down, Automatic refresh will attempt to refresh the data in the client resulting in a connection error.
