Connectivity Test

The CA OM Connectivity Test Utility verifies installation of the CA OM Web Services on your system. This command "pings" the Web Services Server to ensure that it is up and running.

Note: This utility does not access any of your Host OM Products (CA View®, CA Dispatch™, and CA Bundl®) repositories. This command requires that the CA OM Web Services is deployed to a server, and that the server is started.

Follow these steps:

1. Open a Command Prompt in Windows or Terminal in Unix/Linux/USS.
2. Navigate to the Utilities folder.

   Windows default:

   C:\Program Files\CA\CA_OM_Web_Services\utilities

   USS (Installed by InstallAnywhere)/Unix/Linux default:

   /usr/local/CA_OM_Web_Services/utilities

   USS (Installed by SMP/E):

   /cai/om_web_services/utilities

   Other:

   <CA OM Web Services Install Location>/utilities

3. Invoke the Ping Server command.

   Note: For more information about how to invoke a program on your platform, see Running the Configuration Tool (Interactive Mode). For Windows, you launch the tool from a command prompt.
