Applications settings

PAGE CONTENTS

This page describes configuration settings for the Planning Space and CX Suite applications, as they are controlled from IPS Manager.

For settings that can be made at the level of individual client users, IPS Manager controls the default value that clients will inherit, and whether clients are allowed to make changes from the default.

For application settings as they are controlled by Tenant administrators or client users, see the Planning Space User Manual.

Important: You must click the 'Save all changes' button at the top of the page to store the settings changes that you have made (the 'Discard changes' button can be used to undo changes if the 'Save all changes' button has not been pressed). Settings which have been changed from their default value appear in bold face. The 'Reset' button for each setting can be used to restore the default value (and click 'Save all changes' to perform the reset).

Overview of applications configuration

The following table summarises the different types of application setting.

Setting type Applies to Can be set by Location of setting controls PowerShell cmdlets
(Get-{NOUN} and Set-{NOUN})
Service setting All tenants and all server machines IPS Administrator Applications > {APPLICATION} > Advanced ApplicationServiceSetting
Server setting Server machine (all tenants) IPS Administrator Applications > {APPLICATION} > Advanced ApplicationServiceSetting
Tenant setting Tenant (all server machines) IPS Administrator Applications > {APPLICATION} > Advanced ApplicationServiceSetting
Tenant Administrator Tenant web interface (Settings)
Planning Space client (Tenant settings)
(Not applicable)
Client setting - scope 'Tenant' Application client for all users in a tenant IPS Administrator Applications > {APPLICATION} > Client settings (Scope: Tenant setting) ApplicationClientSetting
Client setting - scope 'User' Application client IPS Administrator Applications > {APPLICATION} > Client settings (Scope: User setting) (Note: IPS Administrator sets the default value for users, and can set the scope so that users cannot modify the value) ApplicationClientSetting
User Client application software (Note: only if setting is not locked by IPS Administrator) (Not applicable)

PowerShell cmdlets are available for IPS Administrators to Get, Set or Reset all types of settings. See IPS PowerShell module (Automation cmdlets).

The 'Server' settings are intended to allow adjustment for different server machine hardware resources, for example if a server machine in a cluster is provisioned with extra resources for use as a 'large job' server. However most of these server-specific settings are located in the IPS Manager 'Servers' screen (see Servers configuration).

Client settings and scope

Each client setting has a scope, that is whether it is a 'User setting' which can be modified by the user of an application client, or it is a 'Tenant setting' which can only be modified by an IPS Administrator and has the same setting for all users in a tenant.

There is a default scope (User or Tenant) for each client setting, which is recorded in the tables below.

For some settings, the scope is changeable by an IPS Administrator. This possibility is marked in the tables below in the 'Scope change?' column, where the values are 'Yes', or blank meaning 'No'.

If a scope is changeable, an IPS administrator can do this:

  • in the IPS Manager web user interface: click the 'Edit' button for a setting, and use the buttons to switch between 'Always default to this setting' (for Tenant setting) or 'Allow user to change default setting' (for User setting);
  • using the PowerShell cmdlet Set-ApplicationClientSetting to set the value of 'IsUserScope' to 0 (for Tenant setting) or 1 (for User setting).

Client settings have a 'ConfigFile' attribute, which is recorded in the top row of each table of settings (below). You will need to use this attribute string to get or set client settings using the PowerShell cmdlets, or using the IPS Admin API.

Basic settings (for each application)

Use the 'Basic' tab in the settings screen for each application - which is accessed from the main 'Applications' screen (click 'Applications' in the left-hand menu).

These application settings apply to all tenants and all server machines in a cluster.

Diagnostics settings

These two settings control the level of logging data which is recorded.

Important: For an IPS Server cluser, log files are written separately on each server machine, based on the processes and events which occur only on that machine. There is no merging of log file content between the server machines.

Setting name Description
Main log level The level of logging can be set to one of the following options (in order of increasing detail): Error, Warning, Info, Trace. Default value is Info. The log file location is set for each server machine with the 'LogFolder' setting, in the 'Servers' screen, 'Advanced' section.
Event log level The level of logging can be set to one of the following options (in order of increasing detail): Error, Warning, Info, Trace. Default value is Info. These log messages appear in the Windows Event Viewer for each server machine.

 

Application launch link setting

This setting can be used to modify the behaviour of the application's 'Launch' button in the tenant web interface. For example, to do a redirection to Intranet, or a hosted application portal, or launch an ICA or RDP file.

License.AllowModeChange Tenant   This sets whether the application client user can switch between the server and file licensing modes. If True, the client user's License Manager dialog will provide a selection box "License: [From License Server] / [From License File]" False Boolean
License.SelectionMode Tenant   (Only available in version 16.5 Update 7 and later) This determines the license acquisition behavior when a client user starts the application; the automatic settings can reduce the need for users to interact with a license selection dialog, and also the automatic selection can optimize the takeup of licenses from license pools. (The default setting is 'Manual', which maintains compatibility with earlier versions.) If set to 'Manual', the user must select from the available licenses, however the selection will be stored and automatically re-used in following sessions, if it is still a valid license. If set to 'Automatic', the license server will always make an automatic selection (the user is allowed to open the License Manager and change the license selection, but this will not be remembered for the next session). If set to 'AutomaticWithOverride' the license server will make an automatic selection, unless the user manually makes a selection via the License Manager, in which case this selection will be stored for re-use in future sessions. For Update 16 and later: the default setting is 'AutomaticWithOverride'; an additional setting 'Profile' is used with the Licence Profile feature (see License profiles) AutomaticWithOverride Manual, Automatic, AutomaticWithOverride, Profile
DiagnosticLoggingEnabled Tenant   (Only available in version 16.5 Update 20 and later) If enabled the client-side log file will record additional diagnostic information. Only to be used during diagnostic investigations because calculation performance will be affected. False Boolean

IsParallelRun Calculation If True, the calculation should take place using parallel threads True Boolean
MixedPeriodicitySettings Calculation Mixed Periodicity Settings for result set calculations. For example, if the Mixed periodicity should contain first 1 year in Monthly, 2 years in Quarterly, 3 years in Semi-Annually, then set the value as 1:2:3 . StartYear is optional: for example to include a start year of 2010, set the value as 1:2:3:2010 1:2:2 Monthly:Quarterly:Semi-Annually or Monthly:Quarterly:Semi-Annually:StartYear

ODataWideAndTallTableMaxRowsPerRequest IntegrationServices Maximum number of rows per page when requesting 'wide' and 'tall' tables in OData API requests involving the denormalized entity sets (AllVariablesTall, AllScalarVariablesWide and AllPeriodicVariablesWide). This setting and several other factors will determine the actual page size used for an API request (see Integration Services (OData) for an explanation of the page size algorithm). Using the 'pagesize' API parameter will override this setting. The recommended value for this setting depends on server resources and typical loading: better API performance (by returning larger pages of data) requires more resource usage (more memory and CPU will be occupied). 10000 Any 32-bit integer value; recommended range 1000 to 200000 (but highly dependent on server resources and load level)
