Selecting dynamic index switching options

  1. To start the Session Editor, double-click a session in the Activity Explorer.
  2. On the User Interface tab of the Session Editor, select either of the following Dynamic index switching check boxes:
    • Restart when view fields differ. If switching indices results in the view fields above the grid changing, Enterprise Server restarts the session.
    • Always restart. Users can switch indices in the Overview session, which always restarts the session.
    Note: You can only select the previous Dynamic index switching check boxes if your session is integrated. For non-integrated sessions, use the predefined "dynamic.index.switching" variable in the before.program section of the session's program script:
    • dynamic.index.switching = -1 has the same effect as selecting the Restart when view-fields differ check box.
    • dynamic.index.switching = -2 has the same effect as selecting the Always restart check box .
  3. To show the current index in the overview session's title bar, select the Show name of index check box.
