Common properties of services

To view the properties of a service, select Dashboards > Farm Administration > Services. In the widget, click the Settings icon of the service to administer.

Changes that you make to the properties have immediate effect. For example, change the size of the Log Queue to 1 to flush log entries immediately to the server.
