Setting Surround SCM configuration options
You must select a Surround SCM application directory. Linux installations also require selecting a directory for the SCMStartup.log and SCMProxyStartup.log files. You can use the default directory or select a different directory.
Additional configuration options include setting the server port number and choosing a server execution mode (Windows only).
| Installer | Files | Default directory |
|---|---|---|
| Windows | Applications (all files) |
C:\Program Files\Perforce\Surround SCM |
| Linux | Application | /var/lib/SurroundSCM |
| SCMStartup.log and SCMProxyStartup.log files | /var/log | |
| Unix commands | /usr/bin | |
| Mac | Application | /Applications/Surround SCM |
| Unix commands | /usr/local/bin |
Server execution mode (Windows only)
You can choose to run the Surround SCM Server as a service if you want the server to automatically start when the computer starts. If you run the server as an application, you must manually start the Surround SCM Server application.
The server communicates with Surround SCM clients on this port. Use the default port number (4900) or enter another number.
