Open the Team Foundation Administration Console
You can resolve some configuration issues by using the administration console for Team Foundation. For example, you can determine and correct configuration settings for team project collections, integration with SharePoint Products, and reporting. The administration console is installed when you install one or more of the following components on a server:
an application tier for Visual Studio Team Foundation Server
Team Foundation Server Extensions for SharePoint Products
Team Foundation Build
Visual Studio Lab Management
Required Permissions
To perform these procedures, you must be a member of the Team Foundation Administrators group or your Edit Server-Level Information permission must be set to Allow.
To open the administration console from the Start menu
On a server that is running one or more components of Team Foundation (as listed earlier in this topic), click Start, point to All Programs, and then click Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2010.
Click Team Foundation Administration Console.
Note
If Team Foundation Administration Console does not appear as a menu option, you might not have permission to open it. You can try to open it at a command prompt, but you might not be able to access some or all of the administration console's functionality.
The administration console opens. You might have to wait briefly for all the information to populate throughout the nodes of the console.
To open the administration console at a command prompt
On a server that is running one or more components of Team Foundation (as listed earlier in this topic), open a Command Prompt window, and change directories to the tools directory for Team Foundation Server.
By default, the tools directory is located in Drive:\Program Files\Microsoft Team Foundation Server 10.0\Tools.
Type TFSMgmt.exe, and then press ENTER.
The administration console opens. You might have to wait briefly for all the information to populate throughout the nodes of the administration console.
Note
You can open the administration console at a command prompt even if you do not have all the required permissions to view or modify some or all of the information that the console shows.
