Starting an ObjectServer by using services (Windows)

On Windows, you can optionally install and run the ObjectServer as a Windows service. When the service is set to automatic, the ObjectServer starts when the computer starts up.

About this task

If you have installed the ObjectServer as a Windows service, you can start the service either from the Services window in the Control Panel, or from the command line.

To start the ObjectServer from the Services window, perform the following actions:

Procedure

  1. Open the Windows Control Panel.
  2. Double-click Administrative Tools and double-click the Services icon.
  3. Double-click Netcool/OMNIbus Object Server. The properties window for this service opens.
  4. In the Start parameters field on the General tab, type the command-line options for the local ObjectServer.
    For example, enter:

    -name NCOMS

  5. Ensure that the value in the Startup type field is set to Automatic.
  6. Click the Start button to start the ObjectServer as a Windows service.
    When the service starts, click OK to close the properties window.

Where service_name is the service name of the ObjectServer, as defined in the Services window; for example, NCOObjectServer.
