Monitoring Applications

Each application that is loaded is an open task or process in the operating system. On Windows platforms, the application is displayed in a command-line window. On UNIX platforms, the application server is a child process of ESSBASE. When the application starts, ESSBASE starts the esssvr process. See Starting an Application.
