Linked Servers Window

Location: Configuration > Linked Servers

The Linked Servers window shows a list of all adTempus servers that the current adTempus server has a trust relationship with. You must be a member of the adTempus Administrators group to create, modify, or delete trust relationships.

Click Add or Edit to display the Linked Server Properties window to create or modify a trust relationship.

Click Delete to remove a trust relationship. If jobs are still configured with Job Control Actions or Job Conditions that link to this server, those actions or conditions will fail at execution.

To add a new trust relationship, the adTempus Console must be connected to both servers, and you must be a member of the adTempus Administrators group on both adTempus servers.

Upgrading from Previous Versions

If you are upgrading from adTempus 3 or earlier and you have Job Conditions or Job Control Actions that target remote computers, you will need to create server links for those remote computers. In this case adTempus will log an Alert with ID 5270 at service startup, indicating which computers need to have trust relationships added.

To establish the relationships:

1. Make sure the Console is connected to the source server (the server where the conditions or actions are configured) and to any remote servers listed in the Alert. (You must be a member of the adTempus Administrators group on all affected servers.)
2. Select the source server's node in the Console Tree and open the Linked Servers Window.
3. For each remote computer, use the Add button in this window to add a linked server. Be sure to check The current server can send commands option in the Linked Server Properties.
