Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could provide a brief description of what the following Baan Windows services do?

BaanJobDaemon Baan
BaanLicencing
BaanLogicService
BaanSharedMemory
SafariService


Many thanks.

Ok, I will try :)

As I usually do Baan on Unix only, anybody feel free to correct me:

"BaanJobDaemon" is not a service as such, but mainly a login configuration, which can be used in the windows scheduler to start Baan jobs.

"BaanLicensing" is the license daemon monitoring your concurrent license usage.

"BaanLogicService" is the actual application service. The Baan GUI connect here to start a behsell on the server. In reality this is simply a rexec daemon.

"BaanSharedMemory" is the shared memory manager of Baan.

"SafariService" is actually not a Baan core component, but most likely the safari reporting tool of a third party vendor.

For normal operations you need the logic service, the licensing and the sahred memory.

Regards

Markus

Just 1 correction that I can see.

The BaanJobDaemon is a service, it will launch jobs independant of windows scheduler.. (most people do not use it..)

Cheers Markus and Dave_23 for your responses. I can now complete my system documentation.
