Installing a SIMULIA Execution Engine Station as a Service

Manually installing a SIMULIA Execution Engine as a service involves running a command, which is included with your station installation, and specifying a SIMULIA Execution Engine connection when prompted and configuring the Windows Logon Credentials to be used to launch the service.

  1. Log in as an Administrator or a user with administrative privileges.
  2. Open a Command Prompt dialog box.
  3. Type the following command:

    For Windows 64-bit:

    <isight_install_dir>\win_b64\code\command\installstation.bat

    A short message appears in the console, and the SIMULIA Execution Engine Logon dialog box appears.

  4. Select the connection profile for the SIMULIA Execution Engine you want this SIMULIA Execution Engine station to use, and enter the logon ID and password to be used.

    You will not log in to the SIMULIA Execution Engine at this time; the information is stored for later use when the service is started.

  5. Click OK.
  6. Using Windows Logo Key + S, launch the Search feature of Windows / Windows Server.
  7. Search and open Administrative Tools / Windows Administrative Tools App and open the Services(Service Manager) console.
  8. From the Services dialog box, locate the service named SIMULIA Execution Engine station (SEEStation), and click it to select it.
  9. Right-click the SIMULIA Execution Engine station (SEEStation) entry, and select Properties.
    The Properties dialog box appears.
  10. Click the Log On tab.
  11. Click This account, and enter the account name and password for the account that was given privileges in Setting Station Execution Permissions for the Excel and Word Components.
  12. Click OK to save your changes.
  13. Close the Services dialog box.

    A SIMULIA Execution Engine station has now been configured and installed as a service. Now you need to access the Windows Services interface.
