Starting System Manager

System Manager is the interface to InterChange Server (ICS) and the repository. You access an InterChange Server instance on a UNIX machine from a Windows machine on the network. You must first register ICS and connect to it through System Manager.

Note:
System Manager runs on a Windows client machine. It can monitor or stop InterChange Server installed on a UNIX machine. However, it cannot start InterChange Server. For information on how to start InterChange Server, see "Starting InterChange Server".

Preparing the client environment

Before you register an InterChange Server instance with System Manager, you must ensure that the client Windows computer has access to the ORB through the IBM ORB Transient Naming Server, (the tnameserv executable). For more information on how to configure the client computer for System Manager, see "Installing and Configuring the Object Request Broker (ORB)".

Starting System Manager

To start System Manager on the Windows computer, select Start > Programs > IBM WebSphere InterChange Server > IBM WebSphere Business Integration Toolset > Administrative > System Manager

System Manager's main window appears. For more information about using System Manager, see the Implementation Guide for WebSphere InterChange Server.
