Command Line Diagnostic Tools Requirements
The command line diagnostic tools for My webMethods Server require Java Runtime Environment version 1.8 (JRE 1.8) or later. When you install My webMethods Server Diagnostic Tools, the Software AG Installer automatically installs and configures the required JRE.
You can use the command line tools to diagnose earlier versions of My webMethods Server (specifically, versions 8.2.x, 8.0.x, and 7.1.x). To do so, you must:
*Configure the corresponding server installation to use JRE 1.8 or later.
*Make sure the release installation is updated to the following level:
*For a version 7.1.x installation, MWS_7.1.3_Fix 5 or later.
*For a version 8.0.x installation, MWS_8.0_SP2_Fix4 or later.
You can download fix packages for My webMethods Server from the Software AG Empower Product Support Website, http://empower.softwareag.com (login required).
*Start the server in monitoring mode using one of the following commands:
*Windows:

Software AG_directory\MWS\bin\mws.bat -s server_name -m start

Software AG_directory\MWS\bin\mws.bat -s server_name -m run
*UNIX:

Software AG_directory\MWS\bin\mws.sh -s server_name -m start

Software AG_directory\MWS\bin\mws.sh -s server_name -m run
