DescriptionProperty
The port used for communication between Switch Designer and
SwitchClient Watchdog, in the range of 1 to 65535.
Port for Switch Watchdog
Note: The port in the range 0 to 1023 are often managed by the IANA
and are available for use only to privileged users.
If set to yes, communication with SwitchClient instances uses the
secure https protocol; using the secure protocol introduces a
performance overhead of approximately 20%
Secure SwitchClient
communication
If set to no (the default), regular http is used instead
If set to yes (the default), jobs transferred from and to SwitchClient
instances are compressed (higher processing time and lower
bandwidth consumption)
Compress client jobs
If set to no, jobs are not compressed (lower processing time and
higher bandwidth consumption); this is meaningful for high-speed
local networks
Remount Volumes
Remount Volumes is only available when Switch is running on Mac OS X.
It contains one single preference: "Volume remount information" which contains a list of volume
paths with corresponding user name and password.
If the network connection is interrupted while the flow is running, these volumes will be
automatically (re)mounted. The specified user name and password is used to mount the volumes.
The list of volumes to be remounted, shows the Volume path, the User name and Password.
When closing the list editor, only volumes with a defined user name will be kept.
Property editor
This preference uses a new property editor which offers the following three columns:
DescriptionColumn header
The complete network path identifying a volume that may
have to be remounted by Switch
Volume path
The user name to be used for remounting the volume
(required field)
User name
The password to be used for remounting the volumePassword
Leaving the user name empty is equivalent to not listing the volume at all. When user closes the
property editor all items with empty user names are automatically removed. This is relevant to
the suggestion feature described in the next section.
