The Configure Runtime command-line utility performs runtime configuration operations. Following are the operations:
Creating Views - Views can be created and configured either by executing the ConfigureRuntime.exe or using the Runtime Administration Tool. Creating views provides mapping and security information to connect external clients to applications. Views store the information that is required for protocol adapters to connect to applications. Refer to Using Protocol Adapters for more information.
Deleting Views - Views can be deleted by executing the ConfigureRuntime.exe or using the Runtime Administration Tool.
Modifying environment settings - The AB Suite runtime settings can be configured by executing the ConfigureRuntime.exe. The AB Suite runtime settings modify the behavior of AB Suite windows runtime systems.
Configuring the component settings for the internal AB Suite runtime components to optimize the performance of windows runtime systems. The COM+ features that can be configured include Application Pooling and Recycling, Object Pooling, and Role settings.
Application Pooling COM+ feature allows you to run multiple instances of an application through concurrent users. By default, COM+ executes a single instance of an application, which is represented by a single running process (DLLHost.exe). A single instance of an application is capable of executing multiple threads and therefore executes multiple transactions simultaneously, thereby supporting many concurrently connected users.
The Application Recycling feature stops and restarts individual instances of an application to keep the various instances of an application always new. The COM+ recycling feature is automatic and seamless without disconnecting or impacting any user.
You can specify roles for specific user names through Role settings.
This utility is automatically installed with Agile Business Suite Runtime and is located in the AB Suite 7.0 installation directory. You can invoke the utility from a command line to configure views.
Note: By default, only a local administrator can use the ConfigureRuntime.exe.
To run the ConfigureRuntime.exe from the command line:
Point to the bottom-left corner of the screen to enable the Start icon, right-click Start, and then click Run.
Type cmd in the Run dialog box and press Enter to open a command prompt.
In the command prompt, change the working directory to the /bin folder of the AB Suite 7.0 installation directory.
cd C:\Program Files\Unisys\AB Suite 7.0\Bin
