Placing a Server Definition Offline
Typically, when you work with Designer, it is connected to the Integration Servers defined by the server definitions on the Integration Servers Preferences page. Process Development users, however, can perform tasks without being connected to an Integration Server. By placing a server definition offline, you can prevent Designer from trying to connect to the associated server and prompting you for credentials.
When you select the Offline check box for a server definition, Designer terminates any existing connections to the host:port combination specified in this definition. For example, if server definition A and server definition B both specify localhost:5555, selecting the Offline check box to the right of A will terminate the server connections for both A and B.
Refer to the webMethods BPM Process Development Help for more information.

1. In Designer: Window > Preferences
2. In the preferences navigation tree, select Software AG > Integration Servers.
3. Select the Offline check box to the right of server definition you want to take offline.
4. Click OK.
