Main Menu
MWA Main menu has the following menus.
File
!New SG — registers server system generation (SG) information. This command requires the SG information floppy disk described in Registering SG Information on MWA. When this command is selected, the Create a new server dialog box displays. Insert the floppy disk and click the OK button. If the IP address in a new server SG information exists in an old server SG information; the old information is updated. Once the registration has been completed, the server SG information is saved as (IP address).rp file. MWA can be connected only to servers registered using the New SG command.
!Open — opens a server window for a specified server. The Open a Server dialog box lists
!Close — closes the active server window and disconnects the server.
!Delete — deletes the SG information for the selected server.
!Write back SG — saves server SG information on a floppy disk. The SG information can be set again using the floppy disk. When this command is selected, the Write back a server dialog box displays. Insert a formatted floppy disk and select the OK button. Then, select a server from the server list. SG information for only one server can be saved on a floppy disk because the server SG information for all files is saved under the same name.
!Properties — displays or set properties for the current server. If no servers are in operation, the Select a Server dialog box opens. Select a server to change its properties. In the Server Properties dialog box, view or set necessary information.
!Defaults — allows you to view and set basic properties for all servers in the Default Server Properties dialog box. If [Use Default Settings] is checked in the Server Properties dialog box, server properties are set to the values specified in the Default Server Properties dialog box.
!Configure — changes MWA configuration in the Configure dialog box. Timer counts for no response detected. After connecting to a server, MWA sometimes cannot receive any response from the server because the server is busy. If the server responds within specified timer count, MWA does not close communication. Increase the timer count if you expect the server to be busy for a long time. The default is 300 seconds.
!Server Monitor — enables or disables the monitor for servers. The server monitor continually monitors server status using PING or RPC even when MWA is not connected to the servers. The status of the current server is displayed in the status bar. When the server monitor is enabled, a check mark appears next to the menu item.
