Installing ArcIMS Service Administrator

The ArcIMS Service Administrator is a remote site administration tool and can be used as an alternative to or in conjunction with ArcIMS Administrator.

Java 2 Platform Standard Edition Software Development Kit (J2SE SDK) is required for ArcIMS Service Administrator.

How to set up your machine to administer ArcIMS Services

The ArcIMS Service Administrator is installed with a typical installation and can be installed as its own feature (under the Map Creation and Administration installation feature). If you plan to administer only ArcIMS Services, you need to do the following:

  1. Perform a typical installation or install the Service Administrator individually. The Service Administrator is a subfeature of the Map Creation and Administration installation feature.
  2. Complete the post installation setup. This includes the ArcIMS configuration and Web server-servlet engine configuration options. If you do not complete the Web server-servlet engine post installation option, you will need to do it manually using knowledge base document 37382, located on the ESRI Support Web site.
