Configure Global Catalog Settings
When the Desktop Client is initially launched, core system definitions are retrieved from the server and stored in a local catalog file. Definitions do not need to be retrieved again unless a Blueprint is published. Use the Catalog page in the CSM Administrator System Settings window to define Global setting for the catalog, such as whether or not to:
- Store primary system definitions in a local catalog file on a User's machine.
- Allow Users to decide whether or not use a definition catalog.
- Force catalog files to be rebuilt each time a User restarts a CSM Application.
To configure Global Catalog settings:
Store Primary System Definition in a Local Catalog File on Users' Machines | Retrieves core system definitions from the server when the Desktop Client is initially launched, and then stores them in a local Definition Catalog file. Definitions do not need to be retrieved again unless a Blueprint is published. |
Allow Users to Decide Whether or Not to Use a Definition Catalog | Allows Users to override the above default and set their own personal Catalog defaults in the CSM Desktop Client (Tools>Options>General page). |
Invalidate all Current Catalogs | Forces all local Catalog Files to be built the next time each User starts a CSM Application. |
