Register the OpenROAD Server
After installing OpenROAD, you must register the OpenROAD server with Windows user credentials. If you do not register the OpenROAD Server, you will be unable to start and run an OpenROAD Server.
You register the OpenROAD Server using a utility called asreg.exe (Application Server Installer—for more information see the Migration Guide). This utility does the following:
• Installs the OpenROAD Server Windows service (orsposvc.exe). This service runs under the Local System account.
• Registers and configures the OpenROAD SPO Server Pooler (orspo.exe). You are prompted to enter the user name and password that the OpenROAD SPO Server Pooler will run under.
• Registers the OpenROAD ASO Application Server (oraso.exe) to Windows and configures it.
• Registers the OpenROAD Server Proxy Stub (orps.dll) to Windows.
• Registers the OpenROAD Remove Server (orrso.dll) to Windows.
After these steps are completed, the installation can start an OpenROAD Server.
Note: If the account that the OpenROAD Server runs under has its password changed, you must re-register the OpenROAD Server. Simply run the Configure the OpenROAD Server utility again and specify the user name and new password.
The installer wizard does not register the OpenROAD Server during the installation. A shortcut named "Configure the OpenROAD Server" is created that you can use to register the OpenROAD Server.
To register the OpenROAD Server
1. Click Start, All Programs, Ingres, OpenROAD 6.0, OpenROAD Server, Configure OpenROAD Server.
The Configure OpenROAD Server dialog opens.
2. Enter the user name and password for the Windows account under which the OpenROAD Server will run. This Windows user must have local Administrator privileges to register the OpenROAD Server.
The credentials are applied, items are registered, and the OpenROAD Server service is started.
