Frequently asked questions about providing TeamForge Lab Management services

Use this background knowledge to help you support TeamForge Lab Management projects.

What is an audit log?
Every action performed by the user in the TeamForge Lab Management system is recorded in the Audit Log.
What happens when I move a machine between projects?
When you move a machine from one project to another, the machine is not automatically rebuilt. It still runs the same profile and all the same software it was running in the original project.
What is port forwarding?
Use port forwarding to let TeamForge Lab Management hosts connect to machines on other networks.
What is host URL mapping?
Host URL Mapping in TeamForge Lab Management allows you to access web services running inside the TeamForge Lab Management environment from anywhere, using a simple and consistent URL, with optional SSL encryption services added on.
How does host URL mapping compare with port forwarding?
URL mapping is good if you don't want your connection blocked, while port forwarding is good if you need non-HTTP services.
Why doesn't URL mapping work for me?
My page doesn't look right. Images and graphics are wrong, or functionality doesn't work. The same page looks and works fine when viewed through Port Forwarding.
How are virtual guests different from physical machines?
Virtual guests work like physical hosts, with some important differences.
What is involved in migrating a virtual guest?
When you migrate a virtual guest to a different host, there are a few things to keep in mind.
What's a good way to read log information?
