Validating the PVS Change Utility Configuration
Validate your configuration by following the next steps:
1. After exiting pvschange_config, verify that the following files are now located in the <setup_directory> specified earlier:
a. pvschange_config.log - log file created by the tool during the configuration process. See this log file for details on any configuration issues.
b. adapter.pvi - lets you determine whether a directory has a configuration and for which adapter. Windows users can double-click this file to open the configuration tool for an adapter, with the appropriate data filled in.
c. debug_options.txt - provides extra command line options to the PVS Change Utility when it has to run in verbose (debug) mode. When the option to Start verbose workers is enabled in the Worker Agent Administration window, any worker that is started from this window will include options specified in this debug options file.
For details on the command line options, refer to Advanced PVS Change Utility Configuration.
d. pvschange.rcp - configuration recipe file. Recipe files are used to configure the file conversion process itself. See Introduction to Recipe Editing for Converting CAD Data for additional information.
e. pvschangebatch.bat.- command line publishing script. Review pvschangebatch Overview for instructions for using this script.
f. pvschangeworker.bat.- server controlled publishing script. Review pvschange worker Overview for instructions for using this script.
g. purge.bat removes all log files generated by the adapter from the <setup_directory>.
2. You can verify each component of your configuration is working correctly by the following methods:
a. Follow the instructions in Command Line Execution of the PVS Change Utility to use pvschangebatch. Successful batch publishing from the command line means the environment of your configuration supports command line publishing.
b. Follow the instructions in Server Controlled Publishing using pvschange to setup a pvschangeworker.

The pvschangeworker is used in conjunction with a Visualization server. For more information, refer to Visualization Server Definition.
