Restrictions when modifying deployment directories and processes

You can add deployment directories or Launcher processes while the Launcher service (or daemon) is running. You cannot remove a deployment directory while the Launcher service is running, and you must stop a Launcher process before you can remove the process.

The detailed procedures are described in Deployment Directories Tab.

  • Cannot Remove Deployment Directories
    • Under the Deployment Directories tab, the Remove button is disabled and grayed out so you are unable to remove deployment directories while the Launcher service is running.
  • Removing a Launcher Process
    • Under the Deployment Directories tab in the File List window that is invoked by clicking the Edit button, the Remove button is disabled and grayed out if the specific Launcher process is running, and enabled if the specific Launcher process has been stopped. (To remove a Launcher process, it must first be stopped.)
  • Adding Deployment Directories
    • However you can still add new deployment directories under the Deployment Directories tab by clicking the Add button.
  • Adding Launcher Processes
    • And you can still add new Launcher processes in the File List window by clicking the Add button. (The File List window is invoked by clicking the Edit button.)
    • Modification of a Launcher process that is currently running takes effect after the Launcher is restarted.
