To add the Batch Job Service and ProvisioningNwExt

1. In Workbench, open the Supervisor station.

2. Open the provisioningNiagara palette in the Workbench palette side bar (see “Using the palette side bar” in the User Guide for general details).

3. Expand the station’s Config space to see its Services folder, and double-click it for the Service Manager view. If a BatchJobService is already listed, verify it is enabled (status “ok”), and skip ahead to Step 6.

4. From the palette, drag the BatchJobService onto the station’s Services folder. In the popup Name dialog, you can rename the service—or, simply use the default name.

5. Click OK to add the BatchJobService to the station.

   A BatchJobService named “BatchJobService” (or whatever you named it), is under your Services folder.

   From the property sheet of the BatchJobService, you can set the service’s Job Queue > Max Threads property to a value greater than 1, say 2 or 3, to allow more than a single provisioning job to run concurrently. It is also recommended that you change its Alarm Class from the default “Default Alarm Class” to another alarm class to use for monitoring provisioning alarms.

   For more details, see BatchJobService.

6. Under the station’s Config space, expand its NiagaraNetwork. If a ProvisioningNwExt is already a child of the network, verify that it is enabled (status “ok”), and skip ahead to the next procedure, Configure the NiagaraDevice extensions.

7. From the palette, drag the ProvisioningNwExt onto the station’s NiagaraNetwork. In the popup Name dialog, you can rename the ProvisioningNwExt—or, simply use the default name.

8. Click OK to add the ProvisioningNwExt to the Supervisor’s NiagaraNetwork.

   You should have a ProvisioningNwExt named “ProvisioningNwExt” (or whatever you named it), under your NiagaraNetwork.
