New Windows Service Created

Running the ant command to create a Service View service automatically creates a new Windows service, as follows:

• Runs the following command in %USM_HOME%\View\bin:

  viewservice.bat -i
  

  The new Windows Service named CA Service Viewnumber is created, where number is the same as the view.node.id=number parameter in the cluster.properties file.

  A sample service name is CA Service View3.

• Opens the viewservice.bat file and specifies the path name to the viewservice.conf for the new service.
• Starts the new service.

  This action creates a log file named tomcat_viewnumber.log in the folder named %USM_HOME%\logs\view_logs. The number is the same as the view.node.id=number parameter in the cluster.properties file. A sample file name is tomcat_view3.log.

Optionally, view the new log file to verify that the node has started without any exceptions.

Optionally, verify that the node is functioning by using the URL http://hostname:(view.http.port)/usm/wpf.

Note: To remove the view service, enter the command: viewservice.bat –r.
