Installing the 3DOrchestrate Platform Services

The 3DOrchestrate Platform Services must be installed into the existing 3DSpace MCS. This component provides web services that allow the 3DOrchestrate Distribution Server to store results in the 3DSpace database.

Before you begin: The 3DSpace MCS must already be installed.
  1. Use the web app installer to install the 3DOrchestrate Platform Services into your 3DSpace application server.

    For detailed instructions, see Installing Web Apps.

    In the Select Processes panel of the installer, choose the following:

    EEP - Simulation Execution Services

  2. After the installer finishes, you must edit the SMAExeConfiguration.properties file to connect 3DSpace to the 3DOrchestrate Distribution Server.

    Edit this copy of the file under the /STAGING/ subdirectory:

    <collaboration_server_dir>/STAGING/ematrix/properties/SMAExeConfiguration.properties

    Set the smaexe.proxyserver.url property to the URL to connect to your 3DOrchestrate Distribution Server, whether or not a proxy server is being used.

    In most 3DEXPERIENCE systems a proxy server is used, so you set this property as follows:

    smaexe.proxyserver.url=https://<proxy-server-fqdn>:<port>/

    where <proxy-server-fqdn> is the fully qualified domain name of the proxy server.

    For example:

    smaexe.proxyserver.url=https://proxxy.mydomain.com:448/

    Do not include the application context root "SMAExeServer-REST" in this URL (even if it was used in older releases).

    If you are not using a proxy server and the 3DOrchestrate Distribution Server machine is directly accessible, set the property as follows:

    smaexe.proxyserver.url=https://<hostname>:<port>

    Substitute the hostname and port number of your 3DOrchestrate Distribution Server application.

  3. Run the WAR utility and deploy (or redeploy) the 3DSpace application in your Java EE application server.

    For detailed instructions, see Running the WAR Utility.
