Saving the Directives File as another Name

You can save the current state of the JADE Monitor sampling setup to a name and location other than the local directives file specified in the DirectivesFile parameter in the [JadeMonitor] of the JADE initialization file. For example, if you want to run multiple JADE Monitor background applications with different directives files concurrently, you can save different sampling setups to different names and locations and then have a separate JADE initialization file to run against for each directives file.

To save the current sampling setup to a name and location of your choice

  1. Select the Save Directives File As command from the File menu.

    The common Save Current Directives As dialog is then displayed.

  2. In the File Name text box, specify the prefix that you require for the directives text file.

  3. In the Save In combo box, specify or select the location to which the directives file is saved.

  4. Click the Save button.

The Info message box is then displayed, stating that the setup values have been written to the specified directives file name (which defaults to Directives.txt) and location.

Click the OK button to return focus to your current JADE Monitor view.
