Set Up MonitorMeasurementData (the Request Connector) as a Service

The Request Connector should run under a specific user account, either a local user or a domain user (if multiple ACM servers exist).

1. Open a PowerShell session as an administrator.

2. Create the "ACM MonitorMeasurementData" service for the MonitorMeasurementData executable with one of the following commands, depending if your setup is on-premises or cloud:

   New-Service `

   -Name "ACM MonitorMeasurementData OnPrem" `

   -BinaryPathName "$env:DNAInstallRoot\ACM\bin\MonitorMeasurementData.exe onPrem" `

   -DisplayName "AVEVA Measurement Advisor Request Connector for ACM (on-premises)" `

   -Description "Gathers gas analysis download requests from AVEVA Measurement Advisor on-premises and submits them to AUTOSOL Communication Manager" `

   -StartupType "Automatic"

   New-Service `

   -Name "ACM MonitorMeasurementData Cloud" `

   -BinaryPathName "$env:DNAInstallRoot\ACM\bin\MonitorMeasurementData.exe Cloud" `

   -DisplayName "AVEVA Measurement Advisor Request Connector for ACM (cloud)" `

   -Description "Gathers gas analysis download requests from AVEVA Measurement Advisor in the cloud and submits them to AUTOSOL Communication Manager" `

   -StartupType "Automatic"

   Note: If your files are installed in a location different from the default, please adjust the file paths in the above code accordingly.

3. Open the Windows Services console.

4. Open the Properties for the "AVEVA Measurement Advisor Request Connector for ACM" service.

5. Go to the Log On tab.

6. Set the Log On account to your local or domain user (for example, AVEVADataConnector).

   Note: Modify the services to start up as the appropriate service account that has access to the required resources such as Microsoft SQL Server. You can also specify the account name and password as part of the "New-Service" command.
