Configuring Server Controller to run a named instance of Delivery
Manager
To run a named instance of Delivery Manager on a single server:
1 From Windows, click Start > All Programs > iTX2.0 > Server Controller Config.
The Server Controller Configuration dialog appears.
2 Go to the Services tab.
3 Select the Delivery Manager service then click Edit. The Service Details dialog
appears.
4 Make sure the Enabled is checked. This will run the instance of the service when
Server Controller is started.
5 Make sure the Execute as Application is check. This enables the
File Name
field,
which will be automatically populated with the path and executable for the Delivery
Manager service.
In the typical installation the path and executable will be
C:\Program Files
(x86)\iTX 2.0\Services\Delivery Manager
Service\Omnibus.OPUS.DeliveryManagerService.exe
.
6 In the Arguments field, type
-name
followed by a name for this instance of the
Delivery Manager service. This should match the name of the configuration profile (as
specified in the Delivery Manager Config) you want this instance to use. For example,
enter
–name ARCHIVES
to run the “Archives” configuration profile.
7 In the Arguments field, after the
-name
argument, type
-profile
followed by the
name of the logging profile this instance will use as its tag in the Delivery Manager log
(as detailed in the iTX System Administration Guide). For example,
–profile
ARCHIVES
.
8 Make sure Auto Restart is checked. This ensure Server Controller will automatically
restart the Delivery Manager service in the event of a failure.
