Network Servers
Optionally, if running under a Professional license, one or more Servers can be added here. It will not be possible to add a Job to the system before creating a Server for the local machine.
The term Network Servers, for our purposes, refers to any machine on the network to which BIMrx® Cloud Manager is authorized to deploy Windows Task Scheduler Jobs. These ‘Network Servers’ must be post Windows 98, which means they come with Windows Task Scheduler installed and running. BIMrx® Cloud Manager runs on both Windows Desktop or Windows Server machines.
The definitions and activities described here relate directly to deploying Jobs to a remote server. The information stored in the Server record provides the information necessary to locate a server, logon and interact with it.
Regarding Windows operating system setup and configuration information necessary to interact with the Task Scheduler—particularly on remote machines across the network, it is a good idea to refer to the Remote Server Setup and Configuration information contained in the Jobs chapter.
