You can change and adjust many Radar configuration parameters with:
- File->Edit Radar Configuration
- Select a server, use Tools->Properties
- On a logger, change the logging level menu
- On a plotter, use the Properties... button
When Radar starts up, it attempts to restore its previous configuration
from a configuration file. The default location of the Radar configuration
file is:
- .radar.ini in your home directory on Unix
- radar.ini in the current directory on Windows
Radar can save its configuration to the configuration file, so that
each time you start Radar, it will start up with the same configuration as
before, monitoring the same servers, and with the same loggers and
plotters visible.
By default, Radar only saves its configuration when you select
File->Save Radar Configuration. However, if you enable `Auto Save
Configuration' in File->Edit Radar Configuration..., under the General
tab, then Radar will save the new configuration every time the
configuration is changed.
CAUTION
The configuration file may contain Radiator access
passwords. If so, ensure the configuration file is suitably protected
against access by unauthorized personnel.
Tip
In order for Radar to start next time with the same
configuration, save the current configuration with File->Save Radar
Configuration, or set Auto Save Configuration in File->Edit Radar
Configuration, General tab.
The following chapters describe configuration options that are
available under the File->Edit Radar Configuration menu.
