Starting a TM1 Server installed as a Windows service

To start a remote server that has been installed as a service, complete the following steps.

Procedure

  1. Open the Microsoft Windows Services manager.

    A list of installed services opens.

  2. Select the entry for the TM1® server you want to start, for example Planning Sample, and click the Start button.

    An Admin Server must be running before a TM1 server can start. If you have specified an Admin Host in the Tm1s.cfg file, the TM1 server will attempt to connect to an Admin Server on that host. The TM1 server will fail to come up if it is unable to connect to an Admin Server for any reason.

    If you have not specified an Admin Host, the TM1 server attempts to connect to an Admin Server on the local machine. If an Admin Server is not currently running on the local machine, either as a service or an application, the TM1 server starts a new Admin Server application and connects to it.
