arplugin.exe or arplugin
In this topic:
Description
The arplugin process executes the C plug-in server, which implements and deploys several server-side APIs. The armonitor process initiates arplugin. The C plug-in server supports only C plug-ins. For information about creating plug-in, see Creating-C-plug-ins.
Synopsis
arplugin [-i ARSystemServerInstallDir] [-m] [-s serverName]
Options
You can specify the following options on the command line:
-i — Specifies the directory in which the BMC Remedy AR System server was installed.
-m — (Windows only) Runs the process in manual mode, not as a Windows service. If you run the process in a command window, you must use this option.
-s — Specifies the name of the server that contains the plug-in.
Environment
ARCONFIGDIR
(UNIX only) Specifies the directory in which the ar.conf file and other BMC Remedy AR System configuration files are stored. The -i option takes precedence over this environment variable.
The arsystem script sets ARCONFIGDIR to ARSystemServerInstallDir/conf, and you should not need to change this value. However, arsystem does not modify ARCONFIGDIR if a preset value is found.
