Running the Console Client

Running the Console Client

This section provides information about running the console client.

On a Win32 Computer

When you finish the installation process, you see an icon for the Console Client in the Informatica’s Products Program Folder.
  1. Click this
    icon
    to start the client.

On a Unix Computer

Once the Console Server is running, the Console Client can be started using this command:
$SSABIN/dceconc

Using the Console Client in Setup Mode

When the Console Client is run, it interrogates the Server to determine the Server’s mode of operation. If the Server is in "setup" mode, the Client initiates the setup test process. You are prompted to supply the required information such as the Rulebase name and selection of the tests to be run. It is recommended that you run all the setup tests.
  1. After you fill in each of the required fields, click
    OK
    .
    Console will then go through the steps involved in completing the installation testing of DCE.
    These include:
    1. creating and initializing a Rulebase
    2. running the standard tests
    The Setup mode serves to confirm that the DCE installation is working correctly. Upon successful completion, the Server and Client change to "normal" mode of operation. The Client can then be used to carry out normal DCE operations. There is no need to restart either the Client or the Server.
    On the other hand, if an error should occur, the Server remains in
    setup
    mode and the install process can be repeated if required.
  2. After the test procedure is completed, click
    Finish
    to switch to the normal mode of operation.

Using the Console Client in Mode

When the Console Client is started it connects to the Console Server determined by the
-h
parameter. It then determines from the Server the mode of operation, either
install
or
normal
.
Having determined that the mode of operation is
normal
the Client opens the main console window.
