Managing Envy Libraries

The first panel you see is Manage Envy Libraries:

$C:\Users\documentation\Documents\vastePublisher\stable\VAS Documentation Word\images\ig\EnvManageLibraries.png$

Manage Envy Libraries Panel

In the above panel, Environments has three known library server names:

•

The first line identifies the File I/O library access. Only one development environment can be connected to a File I/O-based library at a time.

•

‘192.168.10.10’ identifies the server address of a machine which is running the library server program EMSRV which allows many development images to access and share a library.

•

‘build’ identifies the name of a server machine which is converted to an IP address using standard Domain Name Server (DNS) lookup

You can register a new Envy server name/address from this panel by pressing the $C:\Users\documentation\Documents\vastePublisher\stable\VAS Documentation Word\images\ig\EnvNewServerButton.png$ button above the Envy Servers list.

When you select an Envy Server name, a row of buttons are displayed on the line which provides access to the operations you can perform on the Envy Server name/address:

Manage Envy Libraries Panel: with an Envy Server Name Selected

Click the Edit Server Name $C:\Users\documentation\Documents\vastePublisher\stable\VAS Documentation Word\images\ig\EnvEditButton.png$ button to add/remove specific library paths from the Envy Servers list, or to rename the server.

Press the $C:\Users\documentation\Documents\vastePublisher\stable\VAS Documentation Word\images\ig\EnvDeleteButton.png$ button to delete the selected Envy Server Name, and any library paths it defines, from the system.

To add a new Envy Server Name to the system, press the button. You can specify the Envy Server Name as either a network name or a dotted IP address. You will get a new panel to provide specifics.

Clicking on Done or Cancel closes the panel and returns you to the System Settings panel.

Adding and Editing Envy Libraries

When creating a new Envy Server Name, or modifying an existing one, you will see the following panel:

$C:\Users\documentation\Documents\vastePublisher\stable\VAS Documentation Word\images\ig\EnvEditServer.png$

Manage Envy Libraries-Edit Server Panel

In the panel above, ‘build’ is the host of EMSRV, and has three library names. As with the previous list panels, when you select a library name, a row of buttons is displayed on the line which provides access to the operations you can perform on the library name. You can change the path and file name of a particular library name by selecting it and then pressing the $C:\Users\documentation\Documents\vastePublisher\stable\VAS Documentation Word\images\ig\EnvEditButton.png$ button or delete the selected library name entirely by pressing the $C:\Users\documentation\Documents\vastePublisher\stable\VAS Documentation Word\images\ig\EnvDeleteButton.png$ button.

Clicking either Done or Cancel brings you back to the “Manage Envy Libraries’’ list panel.
