System Responses in a Standalone Server Environment
When you initiate the Open in Creo action, the system either directly opens the objects in an existing session (for example if you already have a primary server registered with an active workspace), or helps you register and activate the server/workspace required. The following are some general characteristics of the process:
• The specific iteration you select is opened in Creo Parametric.
• Other objects that are required to open your selected object are also collected. The collected objects represent the latest configuration, unless:
◦ You have downloaded a specific configuration to your workspace or the workspace’s own configuration identifies a specific configuration (for example, a baseline).
◦ You are downloading an object and launch Creo Parametric from the control in the Check Out or Add to Workspace page.
• If the registered server you initiate the action from is not primary, you are asked if you want to make it primary.
• If you initiate the action from a workspace that is not active, you are asked to activate the workspace (and warned that any objects in session are erased by the change of workspace).
• If no server is registered, you are presented with a server registration window.
• If you have existing workspaces on the server, you are asked to select one.
• If you have no existing workspaces on the server, a default workspace is created for you.
• If you have more than one available startup configuration (.psf file) for launching Creo Parametric, you are asked to select one.
• If the action requires a different workspace to be activated, you are warned that objects currently in session will be erased.
