Editing Execution Servers

Tip: To prevent data inconsistency, you need to deactivate an execution server before you can edit it. For additional information, see Activating or Deactivating Execution Servers.

To edit an existing execution server:

  1. On the Administration > Locations page, click the name of the location to which the execution server is assigned. A list of execution servers assigned to the selected location displays.
  2. Click the name of the execution server you want to edit. The Execution Server Settings page displays.
  3. In the Execution server name text box, change the name for the execution server as required.
  4. Specify the name of the host or the IP-address and the port of the computer on which the execution server is installed.
  5. Select Use SSL if you want the application server to connect to the execution server through Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).
    Tip: To connect to the execution server through a non-standard SSL port, see Configuring a Non-Standard SSL Port for Execution Servers.

    If you selected to use a proxy server for the location to which this execution server is assigned, Use SSL is automatically checked with Port 443.

    Note: Only port 443 works, and no other applications on this execution server may use port 443. Additionally, you must configure port 443 in the SccExecServerBootConf.xml file.

    For additional information, see Configuring the SSL Port for a Location Proxy.

  6. Select a Usage for the execution server, specifying whether scheduling or alerting scripts are to be executed. For additional information, see Execution Server Settings Page.
  7. Type a description for the execution server and set its status to active, then click Check to establish a test connection to the execution server.
  8. If the test connection is successful, click Save. You are returned to the list of execution servers, with a confirmation message stating that the update was successful.
