Parameters
Property | Description |
---|---|
Automate Task Service HTTP Port | The default HTTP port to use for the Automate Task Service (for actions that require HTTP communication). The default value is 10011. |
Automate Task Service TCP/IP Port | The default TCP/IP port to use for the Automate Task Service. The default value is 10010. |
Default Managed Task location | When a new managed
task is created, Automate automatically generates an associated task file
containing the task's properties and steps and then stores it in
the default managed task location. This location can vary depending
on the operating system, however, by default, tasks are stored
into a location accessible by all users on the system. See Managed
vs. Unmanaged Tasks for more details. To select a different
location, click the folder icon and browse to the desired location
or manually enter the path to the new location in the provided text box. NOTE: When specifying
a network location as the default managed task location, it is
critical to refrain from using mapped drive letters.
Always specify when using UNC (Universal Naming
Convention) paths. For example,
X:\pathname\ should be \\servername\pathname\. This is
because mapped drives are available only when a user is logged
on and not available when the workstation is in a logged off
state or under LocalSystem services. |
