Disabling and Enabling Server Configurations

You can disable or enable a server configuration from the Server Administration tool. Disabling a server configuration enables you to take a server configuration “out of service” and ensure that it is not started by accident. For example, if you migrate a server configuration, you should disable the prior server configuration. After you are sure that the new server configuration and database are working properly, you can delete the prior server configuration. You can also reactivate a disabled server configuration.

  1. Open the Server Administration tool and select the server configuration.
    Note: You must access the Server Administration tool on the computer where the StarTeam Server is installed.
  2. If the server configuration is running, click GUID-835E1B04-507C-4AD0-86FE-3F807857E66C-low.gif (Shut Down Server).
  3. Once the server has shut down, click STARTEAM-B39193BB-SERVERNOTRUNNING-low.gif (Disable Server).
    • If the server configuration is currently enabled, it becomes disabled.
    • If the server configuration is currently disabled, it becomes enabled.
Tip: The icon to the left of the server configuration indicates its status.
