Adding and Removing Services in Server Admin
Server Admin can only show you the services you are administering, hiding all other
service configuration panes until needed. Before you can administer a service, it must
be enabled for the specific server; then that service appears under the server name in
the main Server list.
To add or remove a service in Server Admin:
1 Select the server that will host the service.
2 Click the Settings button in the toolbar.
3 Click Services.
4 Select the service and click Save.
The service now appears in the list, ready for configuration.
Importing and Exporting Service Settings
To copy service settings from one server to another or to save service settings in a plist
file for reuse later, use the Export Service Settings command in Server Admin.
To export service settings:
1 Select the server.
2 From the menu bar, choose Server > Export > Service Settings.
3 Select the services whose settings you want to copy.
4 Click Save.
The file that is created contains all service configuration information as a plist XML
document.
To import service settings:
1 Select the target server to receive the settings.
2 Choose Server > Import > Service Settings from the menu bar.
3 Find and select the saved service file.
The only file you can use with this function is a properly formatted XML-based plist file,
generated from the settings export.
4 Click Open.
