NOTES
- An AdminServer is installed on every system where you install a Progress database. The AdminServer grants access to each instance of an installed Progress product. The AdminServer must be running in order to use the Progress Explorer configuration tools, or command-line configuration utilities to manage your Progress database. On Windows NT-based systems, the AdminServer starts automatically and runs as an NT service. For UNIX-based systems, a command-line utility (PROADSV) is used to start and stop the AdminServer. For more information about the AdminServer, see the Progress Installation and Configuration Guide Version 9 for UNIX or the Progress Installation and Configuration Guide Version 9 for Windows .
- The database configurations you create with Progress Explorer are saved in the
conmgr.properties
file. Do not edit theconmgr.properties
file directly.- Progress Explorer is a snap-in to the Microsoft Management Console (MMC), the system and network administration tools framework. For more information about MMC, see the MMC online help.
