Wise Package Studio has a server-side service that lets users on client computers
perform certain operations on the Wise Package Studio server. By processing operations
on the server, you reduce the workload of the client computer and, if the packages and
databases reside on the server, you improve the operation's performance.
With Enterprise Management Server, Security Setup determines whether you have
access to this server-side service.
Note
The server can process only one task at a time even if the server has multiple
processors.
Server-side service user account
The server-side service requires a user account to access the information it needs to
perform these server-side operations. This user account is set up when Wise Package
Studio is installed on the server. If the password for the user account changes, then this
service will not work until the user's password is updated in the Wise Repository
Manager on the server. For information on the Wise Repository Manager, see Managing
the Wise Software Repository in the Getting Started Guide. When this service does not
work, the tasks for server-side operations do not appear in Wise Task Manager or their
status does not change from Waiting.
See Wise Task Manager on page 141.
