Yes, you can run OE from your desktop, but you can also start/stop app servers a couple of other ways. We started 905.602 and have only upgraded once to 905.605, I don't know about the older versions. Epicor did the install and used my SQL server as the 32 admin install. The installer showed me the fathom management console that runs in a browser. You can start stop and monitor appservers from there. It works, but I didn't like all of the maneuvering to start/stop all three appservers.
I found a batch script in an Epicor admin guide. I have versions to stop/start all three servers, or just the task and process servers. I run these on the 64bit admin server.
@echo off
echo Starting 905 Database and AppServers...
set DLC=E:\Epicor\OE102A
set PATH=%DLC%\BIN;%PATH%
set LIB=%DLC%\LIB;%LIB%
echo .
echo .
echo STARTING LOCAL DB/APPSERVERS...
cd \Epicor905\db\Test
call asbman -name EpicorTest905ProcessServer -start
call asbman -name EpicorTest905TaskAgent -start
call asbman -name EpicorTest905 -start
You can not have CR Developer 2008 and CR 2008 runtime on the same machine. Developer will not install. Don't know about XI
