For example, type the default PAS for OpenEdge instance name, oepas1, in the Filter field or select Progress Application Server as the selection in the Type drop-down menu and select the PAS instance.
The Progress Application Server: <instance name> page appears.
3. In the Command and control section of the page, click Register as service.
The Register PAS as Service page appears.
4. Click Register as Service to register the PAS for OpenEdge as a service.
You can now start or stop the PAS for OpenEdge instance in the Services view of Microsoft Management Console. Note that the Start and Stop buttons in the Progress Application Server: <instance name> page changes to Start as windows service and Stop as windows service, respectively.
