How to start Workplace 2.7 as a service on Windows servers

Question
How do you start IBM® Workplace™ Collaborative Learning 2.7 releases as a service on Microsoft® Windows™ servers?
 
Answer
To create a service on Windows, at a command prompt, run the following WASService command.
    WASService -"YourServiceName" -serverName WebSphere_Portal -profilePath "Your server_profile_directory" -wasHome "Your app_server_root" -stopArgs "-username userid -password password"

in which
    -- "Your server_profile_directory" is the directory path of the profile that defines the server process.
    -- "Your app_server_root" is the installation root directory of the application server.
    -- " -username userid -password password" identifies a privileged user ID and password under which the Windows Service will run.

If you don't have security enabled on the IBM® WebSphere™ Application Server, remove the following parameter:
-stopArgs "-username userid -password password"
    If security is enabled, you must use this parameter.

    This action will create a service named "IBM WebSphere Application Server V6 - YourServiceName."

    Example:
    wasservice -add "WCL 2.7" -servername WebSphere_Portal -profilePath "C:\IBM\WebSphere\profiles\wp_profile" -wasHome "C:\IBM\WebSphere\Appserver" -stopArgs "-username wpsadmin -password password"
