The installer places the binary in the C:\Program Files\RCU directory and creates a standard Windows service on your machine. The installer adds this directory to your path environment variable. Within this directory the installer places two sample configuration files, r_client.cfg and r_server.cfg. You can use these files to set the program parameters for the RCU (for example, read timeout).
For the CLI command to use these configuration files, please see “/configfile” on page 32. A copy of the readme file is placed in this directory, please read this file for important information regarding the RCU configuration and an example of the configuration file. A log directory is also created for logging purposes.
NOTE: In the default state, immediately after installation, the service will not be running.
NOTE: To uninstall the RCU, use the Windows Add/Remove Programs tool in the Windows Control Panel.

Upgrading from RCU 2.1 to 2.1.x
Prior to the installing the new RCU software, if you have modified the r_server.cfg file which is located in C:\Program Files\RCU , perform the following procedures:
1.Make a copy of C:\Program Files\RCU and put it in a separate directory, for example c:\temp.
2.After the installation, copy the r_server.cfg file back to C:\Program Files\RCU and overwrite the same file in the C:\Program Files\RCU directory.
Modifying the Default RCU Parameters
You can modify the parameters of the RCU service by editing the r_server.cfg file in the C:\Program Files\RCU directory.
1.Stop RCU service
2.Edit the r_server.cfg file. For example, to change read timeout value, append the line: /readtimeout “nnn” in the r_server.cfg file, where “nnn” is the least number of seconds to complete a manual sync operation. The suggested minimum setting to perform a manual sync operation is 10800 seconds (3 hours).
3.Save the r_server.cfg file.
4.Restart the RCU service.
