Introduction
An Application Settings node is available for each of your applications. This node enables system admins to change your application's state, servers, and category and view key details about your SQL and SSAS environments.
This article covers:
- Navigating to an Application Settings node.
- Turning on/off applications.
- Switching to different modules.
- Using the General tab.
- Using the SQL Environment tab.
- Using the SSAS tab.
- Resources for further learning.
Note: The information presented on the SQL Environment and SSAS Environment tabs comes from the underlying application database. If you wish to update this information, please do so directly in the SQL server database engine or analysis services.
Tip: Explore other ways system admins can customize and configure their Kepion environment here.
