    Description

    Object Reservation

    Selecting Enforced causes the server to require object reservation. See Enabling-and-using-object-reservation.

    If you are logged in to the server in Developer Studio when you enable object reservation, you must log on again before you can reserve objects.

    See To give sub-administrators access to an AR System server with object reservation enforced.

    Object Modification Log

    Selecting Enabled causes the server to log every change to objects. See Enabling-and-using-version-control-labels.

    Save Definition Files

    Selecting Yes causes the server to write a definition file each time an object is created or changed. This option is available only when the object modification log is enabled.

 To give sub-administrators access to a AR System server with object reservation enforced

  1. Create a group with:
    • Group Type set to View.
    • Group Category set to Computed.
    • Group Definition set to Sub Administrator.
      This group contains all users in the Sub Administrator group.
  2. Grant the group Hidden permission and not sub-administrator permission, to the AR System Version Control: Object Reservation form.
    A user must have access to this form to connect to a server using Developer Studio.
