Installing the Client Tools
The Spectrum Technology Platform client tools are applications that you use to administer your server and design and run dataflows and process flows. You must install your Spectrum Technology Platform server before installing the client tools.
This procedure describes how to install the client tools:
- Enterprise Designer allows you to create, modify, and run dataflows.
- Job Executor is a command line tool that allows you to run a job from a command line or script. The job must have been previously created and saved on Spectrum Technology Platform using Enterprise Designer or Flow Designer.
- Process Flow Executor is a command line tool that allows the execution of a process flow from a command line or script. The process flow must have been previously created and saved on Spectrum Technology Platform using Enterprise Designer or Flow Designer.
- Administration Utility provides command line access to several administrative functions. You can use it in a script, allowing you to automate certain administrative tasks. You can also use it interactively.
