A little counter intuitive gotcha this one. At first glance, you would expect to right click a server in the servers view, and pick properties. However, if you do this, you do not get the full set – you just get the ability to switch deployed file location and some monitoring options.
If you just double click the server in the list, or right click and select Open, you get the Overview page listing (almost – see below) all the available properties for the server. For some reason in the past I tripped over this more than once, as it just does not seem right that the properties context menu option does not give the full property page (or at least link to it)!
Also, note that the ‘monitoring’ options available on the properties context menu option do not also appear on the Overview page – however the location options do appear on the overview page in more comprehensive form.
DOH!!!
