Windows Services in XBOUND

XBOUND services manage all non-interactive (automatic) processes within XBOUND:

Service

Description

XBOUND Collect Service*

Runs the XBOUND collectors, thereby importing documents into XBOUND. You must add and configure collectors.

To scale the system, you can run multiple services on a single server or on multiple servers.

Tip: You can limit the data that a collector processes.

XBOUND Activities*

Runs the XBOUND activities that you assign to it. In the background, this service checks for available (ready) documents, checks them out for processing, and checks them in again after processing.

The working folder, polling cycle, and relogin cycle can be specified in the Common Configuration Manager.

Alternatively, you can run multiple Activities services on a single server.

XBOUND Web Application Service*

Application server for XBOUND web applications such as RCF Web Verification. Managing web applications describes how to register web applications in the XBOUND system.

XBOUND System Agent Service*

Runs the XBOUND system agents that you assign to it.

To scale the system, you can run multiple services on a single server or on multiple servers.

XBOUND License Service

Manages XBOUND licenses. See License Information plug-in for more information.

XBOUND Platform

Offers one of two ways of running the XBOUND application server. (The other way to run XBOUND application server is as an XML Web Service in Internet Information Server (IIS).) These options are described in detail in XBOUND Installation Guide.

If used, the XBOUND Platform service must be configured (see instructions).

You can install and configure multiple instances of this service to achieve automatic load balancing or failover.

ReadSoft Knowledge Processing Service

 

Optional. Runs Knowledge Processing, which is part of RCC.
