Configuring a Worker on a Different Windows Machine
The worker can be configured on a Windows machine that is different from the Windchill server machine. The configuration procedures for this scenario are exactly the same as the example of configuring the worker on the same machine as the Windchill server, except for these differences:
• The need for a common file system shared between the two machines.
• The use of the Worker Daemon to execute the worker startup script on a different Windows machine. This communication is handled by using a small executable called WorkerDaemon.exe. The WorkerDaemon.exe is installed and optionally configured as a Windows Service called “GS Worker Daemon”, as part of the Creo View Adapters installation. These instructions assume that you installed the Worker Daemon during this installation.
