Running Live Energy Connect as a Process

Sometimes while developing, troubleshooting, or testing with an Oracle Utilities Live Energy Connect (LEC) Server configuration, you may not want to run the server as a Windows service you might need to frequently start and stop it. In situations like this, you can run the server as a Windows process.

To run LEC Server as a Windows process:

1. With the desired configuration alias chosen, select Start Server Process from the Configuration Alias panel. The LEC Server will start as a process and a console window will appear (for ease of monitoring multiple LEC Server processes on one machine). If the console window is closed, the server process stops. The Running State indicator updates to Running or Standby once the server finishes its start-up (depending on the server configuration).
2. To stop an LEC Server from running as a server process, select Stop Server from the Configuration Alias panel when the appropriate configuration alias is selected. Alternatively, you can close the console window that was opened when the server process was started.

Note: To run multiple LEC Server instances on the same machine (as Windows services or processes), each server instance needs a unique App Name, Soap port, and MMS port. These server parameters are specified in the Server tab of the Properties panel.
