To set general preferences in the GUI

To access the general preferences, select File > Preferences. Then, in the Preferences Configuration window, select Integrity Client > General.

• Look and Feel (Windows only)—The color scheme of the GUI. You must restart the Integrity Lifecycle Manager client for this change to take effect.

• Popup Delay (ms)—The time in milliseconds before the status of a command appears. The default value is 2500 for the GUI and 0 for the CLI.

• Max Messages Displayed—The maximum messages to be displayed in the Integrity Client Status Details window. The default value is 4000. You can set this preference to any value between 0 and 100000.

• Exit On Close—Determines whether the Integrity Lifecycle Manager client is completely shut down when the using Close Window command or the close icon in the upper-right corner of the window. When not enabled, the Integrity Lifecycle Manager client window closes, but the Integrity Lifecycle Manager client continues to run in the background. By default, this option is not enabled.

• Enable System Tray Icon (Windows only)—When selected, an Integrity Lifecycle Manager client icon appears in the Windows notification area (also known as the system tray). You can perform some basic commands by right-clicking this icon. This option is enabled by default.

• This Integrity client will respond to Integrity URL links. (Windows only)—When selected, this Integrity Lifecycle Manager client is used to open Integrity Lifecycle Manager client URL links. For detailed information on the Integrity Lifecycle Manager client views that you can open from within email notifications and other supported options, see Integrity Client URL Links.

If multiple Integrity Lifecycle Manager client installations are present on a single machine, by default, this option is enabled by default on the last installation only.

When Integrity Lifecycle Manager client URL links are enabled on another Integrity Lifecycle Manager client, a note displays the full path of that Integrity Lifecycle Manager client installation. If you select this option for the current client, the option is automatically disabled on the other Integrity Lifecycle Manager client installation.

• Maximum heap size—The maximum amount of memory reserved for the Integrity Lifecycle Manager client. The default value is 512. The minimum value is 5, and the maximum value depends on your available system memory.

Changing the heap size setting may unfavorably affect the performance of the Integrity Lifecycle Manager client and your system. Consult your administrator before making changes.

There are additional settings under Integrity Client > Commands that you may want to modify:

• Under Disconnect From Server, the Confirm Disconnect preference determines whether you are asked for confirmation when disconnecting from the server.

• Under Exit, the Shutdown all Integrity Clients preference determines whether all clients are shut down when you exit the Integrity Lifecycle Manager client.
