About Starting the SIMULIA Execution Engine Server

The SIMULIA Execution Engine is started and initialized when the WebSphere application server is started and when the SIMULIA Execution Engine application deployed on the server is put into the running state. Typically this process is performed automatically when the application server is started.

The application server tools, described in the following sections, should be used to start the server. The server log will show details of the SIMULIA Execution Engine startup and initialization sequence, starting with a message similar to the following, where <server_name> is the name of your application server:

SIMULIA Execution Engine (SINGLE) starting on server 
"<server_name>"

This message is followed by a number of initialization messages. When initialization is complete, a message appears similar to the following:

SIMULIA Execution Engine server startup completed.
