Management Console helps monitor Advanced ETL Processor workflow execution from a browser through a Windows service. It is useful when unattended jobs need visibility without opening the desktop designer every time something runs.
What You Will Learn
- Understand where Management Console fits in ETL automation.
- Monitor Advanced ETL Processor objects through a Windows service.
- Install or uninstall the service from the command line.
- Check browser access, repository users, and service account permissions.
Before You Start
Confirm the repository, service account, and port before testing. Browser-based monitoring is helpful, but it cannot fix a service running under the wrong Windows user.
Management Console Docs For ETL Monitoring
The Management Console is a Microsoft Windows service for monitoring Advanced ETL Processor and Visual Importer ETL objects. In practice, that means transformations, packages, workflows, and SQL scripts can be watched without opening the designer.
The documentation covers installing the service with amc.exe /INSTALL, removing it with amc.exe /UNINSTALL, and opening the console in a browser after the service is running. The default local address is http://localhost:8080/index.html.
Run the service under the same Windows user used to design the actions. That avoids the usual production surprise: the job works perfectly for you, then fails for the service account because permissions were invited to a different meeting.
