  2. Select the IMSMA Client Configuration Tool option.
  3. Select the value for the java.naming.provider.url property.
    1. Set the java.naming.provider.url value to hostname.domain replacing hostname and domain with the appropriate values, or to the IP address of the server.

Part 6. Verify installation

Obtaining ArcGIS License

The IMSMANG installation is now complete. After installation it is important to start IMSMANG client in order to verify that the installation is complete and working. This is especially important if the user that did the installation, e.g. an IT administrator, is not the same local user that will use IMSMANG.

Follow these steps to start stand-alone server or start the client.
