Ensure that you have administrator privileges to enable the remote RMI interface.

When you enable the remote RMI interface, the AdminServer can communicate with the OpenEdge resources, such as the NameServer, OpenEdge DataServer for Oracle, and OpenEdge DataServer for MS SQL Server and management tools, such as DBMAN.

To enable the remote RMI interface, perform the following steps:

  1. Stop the AdminServer. For more information, see Stop the AdminServer.
  2. Navigate to the location where the AdminServerPlugins.properties file is placed.
    • On Windows, go to: %DLC%\properties\AdminServerPlugins.properties
    • On Linux, go to: $DLC/properties/AdminServerPlugins.properties
  3. Open the file using a text editor and locate the [PluginPolicy.Progress.AdminServer]and [PluginPolicy.Progress.ProAdsv] sections.
  4. Add -DenableRemoteRMI=true to the end of the jvmargs lines in both sections. Ensure that you add a space before the new entry, as shown below:
    
    % AdminServer Plugin Properties file
    ...
    [PluginPolicy.Progress.AdminServer]
        pluginclasspath=!{value-of:classpath}
        classpath=${DLC}/java/ext/esapi-*.jar,
    ${DLC}/java/oe/esamapi-*.jar,
    ...
    jvmargs=-Xms512m -Xmx1024m -DenableRemoteRMI=true
    ...
    [PluginPolicy.Progress.ProAdsv]
        pluginclasspath=!{value-of:classpath}
        classpath=${DLC}/java/ext/esapi-*.jar,
    ${DLC}/java/oe/esamapi-*.jar,
    ...
    jvmargs=-DenableRemoteRMI=true
    ..
  5. Save the file and start the AdminServer. For more information, see Start the AdminServer.
