Installing RSC/MP as a Service
Installing RSC/MP as a Service
If you installed RSC/MP and elected not to run RSC/MP as a service and later decide
that you do need RSC/MP as a service, you can install the RSC Service program by
following these steps:
1. Locate the rscserv.exe file (located in the bin subdirectory under the main directory
into which you installed RSC/MP).
2. From a command prompt, invoke the rscserv.exe program by using this command:
rscserv -install
RSC and Piccolo are added to the Services list.
This method can also be used after you have de-installed the Service program as
described in Removing the RSC and Piccolo Services on page 4-12. You can also
use this command to update your current service configuration to use new copies
of the RSC and Piccolo Service executables. In this case, all pre-existing service
settings are maintained.
Removing the RSC and Piccolo Services
If you have installed RSC/MP as a service, and later need to run RSC/MP in its non-
service format, you can de-install just the RSC and Piccolo Service programs without
removing other RSC/MP components by following these steps:
1. Stop the RSC Service from the Control Panel.
2. Locate the rscserv.exe file (located in the bin subdirectory under the main directory
into which you installed RSC/MP).
3. From a command prompt, invoke the rscserv.exe program by using this command:
rscserv -remove
RSC and Piccolo are removed from the Services list.
Querying the Current RSC Service Configuration
You can use the RSCSERV program to produce a report of the current RSC and
Piccolo Service configurations and status by following these steps:
1. Locate the rscserv.exe file (located in the bin subdirectory under the main directory
into which you installed RSC/MP).
2. From the command prompt, invoke the rscserv.exe program by using this
command:
rscserv -query
