Auto-Connect When this switch is turned on, you can automatically connect
to a manager without the Connect To Manager dialog appearing. Whatever
setting have been made in the Connect To Manager dialog will be used.
Request Queue Control Lets you gain control over the rendering queue.
Available only when Queue Monitor is running on two or more machines in
the network, and your copy was not the first one run.
When you request queue control, a dialog appears on the controlling machine
informing that user of the request. The dialog counts down 10 seconds, and
if no response is made during that time, or the OK button is clicked, control
transfers to the requesting Queue Monitor, which then informs the requestor
of the transfer. If the request is denied, the requesting user is informed of that
fact.
Request Client List Displays a dialog listing the rendering servers on the
network, and showing which is the controller (i.e., the active Queue Monitor)
and the user name. Use this to determine which server is currently controlling
the queue.
Auto-Refresh When on, Queue Monitor automatically updates the
information in its windows every 20 seconds, or whenever information changes
if information changes less frequently. When off, to update the windows you
must click the toolbar
Refresh button on page 6328 . Default=on.
Unless you are the only person managing the queue, we recommend leaving
Auto-Refresh on. The danger of turning it off is the possibility of getting out
of sync with the state of the queue. For instance, if another person deletes a
job and you decide to edit that job, when you finish editing that job, the
Manager will send you an error message saying the job no longer exists.
Module Info Report Choosing this command opens the
Module Info Report
dialog
on page 6332 . For troubleshooting purposes, this command lets you
generate a delimited file that shows you the version and location of Backburner
plug-ins and the Backburner application itself for each network rendering
system.
Properties Opens a window that displays information about the current
setup of the machine that is running the network Manager, including job and
server statistics, the Manager's system configuration, and TCP/IP statistics.
Exit Quits the Queue Monitor program.
