Add an Executable to an Application
When you use the Connection Manager to add an executable
name to a defined application, BT Studio automatically adds
the selected executable to the require section of the
application's resource definitions. This assumes that the
require section of the application's resource definition includes
a parameterized resource, using the form resource Process {
ExecutableName=$(Application Executable) }. Application
Response applies the selected executable to the first instance
of ExecutableName=$ that occurs in the rule set. If the first
instance appears in an event specification, for example, that is
where Application Response uses the selected executable
name.
To add an executable name to a defined application:
1. In the Connection Manager, select (highlight) the name of
an application executable that is not connected to an
application.
This row of the Connection Manager shows a connection
symbol and possibly a server symbol , but not an
application symbol. (If the row shows both a connection
symbol and an application symbol, the executable is
already associated with a defined application.)
2. Click Add Executable to Application. BT Studio displays a
list of defined executable-based applications.
3. Select the application to which you want to add the
executable.
4. Click OK.
BT Studio adds that executable name to the require section of
that application’s resource definition. In the Connection
Manager, the application symbol and application name appear
on the same line as the executable name. This ensures that
Application Response can monitor the application when it
observes that the executable program is running. If the
application does not have a defined server assigned to it,
Application Response uses a default server definition to
monitor network and server response times for the application.
