Message Dispatcher Service Option — CSESvcMD Service

A Windows service is a Windows program the Windows operating system controls through the Control Panel Services application, the Service Control Manager (SCM). Using the service application, a program can easily have a set of predefined server programs running or enabled to run when the system boots.

CSESvcMd.exe is a complete self-install and self-uninstall all program that uses standard command-line parameters to set and unset the following COM properties:

The cse_config program performs all registrations. During configuration, can set the log file directory and the time-out period for the CSE Service.

Time Out is the number of seconds the Message Dispatcher sleeps at start-up. Use this option to allow extra time for all databases to start. Oracle take a little longer. Zero (0) indicates not to sleep. The speed of your system determines the time-out value. Do not set the Time Out to a value greater than required.

Note: The database option that you select during configuration determines the database type the service uses. To verify the dependency of the service on a particular database service, inspect the CSESvcMD service's Dependencies property. The Service Control Manager must be able to start the databases that are associated with the named dependencies to start the CSE as a service.

CSESvcMD.Exe can operate in three modes:

Start the CSESvcMD.Exe service to start the Message Dispatcher. Stop the CSESvcMD.Exe service to terminate the Message Dispatcher.

When you start CSESvcMD.Exe in automatic or manual mode, iefmd and all associated servers that are run in the background. They do not appear on your Start menu bar. They can continue running after you log off. When you leave the service in automatic mode, the service and the CSE start when the system starts or restarts.
