Running the FTS Server

When you install the FTS Server, it automatically launches the SDL File Type Support Server service. This service restarts the FTS Server after the Windows computer is restarted and requires no special attention.

To uninstall the service, use the standard Windows Add/Remove Programs option.

Monitoring FTS processing

On the Assignments > Filter Engine Queue page in WorldServer, you can monitor the status of jobs assigned to the FTS Server across the WorldServer environment. You can choose to see all active jobs or all completed and canceled jobs.

The More info link on that page provides Online Help related to how FTS processing is monitored.

A separate table on the Management > Administration > System Logs page provides a record of FTS Server activity. Logs default to a maximum of 10MB, at which point they roll over to a new log file.
