Starting and Stopping the Server
Note
If the server is already running, the
start
command will fail. You must stop
the server first, then use the
start
command. Also, if the server startup fails,
you should kill the process before trying to restart it.
Stopping the Server Manually (Unix)
If you used the
etc/inittab
file to restart the server you must remove the
line starting the server from
/etc/inittab
and type
kill -1 1
before you
try to stop the server. Otherwise, the server restarts automatically after it is
stopped.
To stop the server manually, log in as
root
or use the server’s user account (if
that is how you started the server), and then type the following at the command
line:
server_root /type-identifier/stop
Restarting the Server (Windows NT)
You can restart the server by:
• Using the Services Control Panel to restart any server.
• Using the Services Control Panel to configure the operating system to restart
the server or the administration server each time the machine is restarted.

1.
In the Main group, double-click the Control Panel icon.
2.
Double-click the Services icon.
3.
Scroll through the list of services and select the service for your server.
4.
Check Automatic to have your computer start the server each time the
computer starts or reboots.
5.
Click OK.
