Job Server

A Job Server installation is created on a workstation or on a server.

Stand-alone installation with EOX file or EECX file for data storage:

After the installation of the application as a Stand-Alone installation on the computer, further manual installation steps are required.

Access to an EOX file instead of a FastObjects database can be configured subsequently in ec.ini.

Manual installation steps:

The <EEC_Installation_Folder>/install/jobserver folder contains the jobserver_<Version_Number>.zip file, which contains any required plug-ins. This has to be unpacked and the complete content has to be copied to the <EEC_Installation_Folder>/dropins folder.

After the start of the application, the plug-ins are registered automatically.

To run the Job Server, at least three folders must be set up that can be named in any manner (the following names have been chosen freely):

If the generation of target data requires further resources, another, random, folder must be provided for this as well.

Note:

The Job Server can be set up as a Windows server and can be run without a user interface.

Note:

Up to four Workers together with a Job Server can be run on a workstation or server to generate schematics and 3D graphics with EPLAN Electric P8 and EPLAN Pro Panel. To do this at least four different ports have to be specified for P8 (see Open ports for EPLAN P8 connection).
