If multiple OnBase Windows services need to run on the same server, follow these steps:

  1. Install the OnBase Client on the OnBase file server where you plan on running the Windows services.
  2. Configure the Windows services in OnBase Configuration as described under Service Configuration.

You should not attempt to run more than two OnBase Clients as a Windows Service under the built-in Windows accounts, such as the Local System account. Since the built-in accounts use the same session for every service, the workstation can run out of memory if too many services are run simultaneously under them, which can cause one or more of the OnBase Clients to fail.

Multiple OnBase Clients can be safely run as Windows services under a single distinguished (named) account (e.g., domain\username) because a separate session is created for each service, so they do not share the same memory pool. However, the total number of services that can be run is still limited by the total amount of memory available on the workstation.

In case only one or two accounts need to be shared on the server, be sure to apply the -INIFILE="[Full Path]\[File Name]" switch and point each Windows service to its own onbase32.ini file. Then, edit each onbase32.ini with its own TEMP Parse Path.
