Setup
Following
installation, you will need to setup your environment to run Enterprise
RTView. If necessary, contact your system administrator for assistance.
Depending
on which
data sources
are licensed in your Enterprise RTView application, additional setup may be
required. For information on setup
for your data source, refer to the
Data Sources section of this
documentation. If you will be using the Oracle Coherence Monitor, refer to the System
Requirements and Setup for the Oracle Coherence Monitor.
Once setup is complete, please refer to the Registration
section for instructions on how to obtain a license key.

On Windows,
open a Command Prompt window, go to your installation directory, and type
rtv_init.
