The acurcl -query command is for Windows servers only. It allows you to query whether or not the specified Windows service is installed.
Optional arguments to -query include:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| server | Specifies the name of the server machine. If no server is specified, the server is assumed to be the local host. |
| -n | Identifies a particular instance of the AcuConnect program by port number. The -n must be followed by a space and then an integer, for example, "6524". If no port number is specified, the default port (which has the service name "AcuConnect") is removed. |
When you enter this option, you receive a message stating whether or not the service is installed, and if it is, whether or not the service is currently running. The -query command also displays the startup parameters that have been stored for the service, if any. For example:
C:> acurcl -query Service AcuConnect (AcuConnect 8.0 on the default port (5632)) exists Start Up: Automatic Program: C:\microfocus\bin\acurcl.exe Startup arguments: '-c c:\etc\server1.cfg -le c:\tmp\server1.log' Status: running C:>
Note that the startup arguments listed are the arguments used to install the service and not the arguments given to the currently running server.
