Remote server: Remember disconnected servers when reopening solution.
(Originally from http://forum.ncrunch.net/yaf_postst1180_Remote-server--Remember-disconnected-servers-when-reopening-solution.aspx )
v2.6.0.3
I would like my disconnected servers to stay disconnected until I tell NCrunch to connect, even if I am restarting vstudio etc. Currently disconnected servers are connected when reopening the solution and depending on engine mode start to run tests etc. which are not currently supported by that server.
Which servers are enabled/disabled should preferably be saved in a solution user file config (versus global globalconfig.crunch.xml) so solution 1 may have server A and B enabled and solution 2 only server C etc.

Great! Shouldn't this then be marked as fixed/resolved so Votes are returned to users?

I'm happy to announce this feature has been introduced in NCrunch v2.6, released today.

Yang Lee has a great suggestion on how this can be implemented - http://forum.ncrunch.net/yaf_postst1129_Add-local-machine-to-the-Distributed-Processing-window.aspx
Basically it involves having a checkbox next to each server in the distributed processing window. I see no reason why the checked state couldn't be remembered on a per solution basis, as this would be sensible.
This approach would involve removing the Connect/Disconnect options, which at the moment are particularly fiddly and don't fit well in the workflow.
