The Protege GX Services
The Protege GX Server is made up of six different services:
 Protege GX Update Service
 Protege GX Data Service
 Protege GX Download Service
 Protege GX DVR Service A
 Protege GX DVR Service B
 Protege GX Event Service
Each service performs a different function within the system. It is important that you have a good understanding
of what these services do, and more importantly, when to start or stop them.
Protege GX Update Service
The Update Service acts like the supervisor of all the other Protege GX services. It is also responsible for
ensuring that the server license is valid.
