Artikel

You can support physical and organizational changes in your business infrastructure by modifying the settings for your team project collections. For example, you can stop a collection before you perform an operation such as backing up its data or applying a service pack to the server on which a collection resides. You can then restart the collection after you complete the operation. You can change the users who have access to the collection, their permissions, and the resources that are allocated for the collection in SharePoint Products and SQL Server Reporting Services. You can modify all settings for collections in the administration console for Team Foundation.

You can find information about a team project collection on the following tabs:

General: Displays the name and the uniform resource indicator (URI) of the collection. From this tab, you can also stop or start the collection, view or edit the description of the collection, and administer the group membership and permissions for users and groups in the collection.
Status: Displays the status of the collection. From this tab, you can also open a log file that provides details about the collection status.
Team Projects: Displays the list of team projects that the collection contains. On this tab, you can also review any descriptions of team projects that were included.
SharePoint Site: Displays the URI of the site under which Web sites will be created by default for all team projects that are created in the collection. If you create or modify a team project, you can specify a different site, but this root site will be used as the default. From this tab, you can also change the default location for creating team project portals and add or remove the configuration.
Reports Folder: Displays the path under which report folders will be created by default. These folders will store the reports for team projects that are created in this collection. If you create or modify a team project, you can specify another folder, but this root path will be used as the default. On this tab, you can also change the default location and remove the configuration.

Required Permissions

To perform these procedures, you must either have the following permissions or be a member of the following groups:

The View Instance-Level Information and Edit Instance-Level Information permissions set to Allow or a member of the Team Foundation Administrators group
If you want to modify settings for SQL Server Reporting Services or SharePoint Products, the service account for Team Foundation Server and that is used by the Team Foundation Background Job Agent must have appropriate permissions on the instance of SQL Server or the SharePoint Web application. For more information, see Service Accounts and Dependencies in Team Foundation Server and Team Foundation Background Job Agent.
