Running BeStMan2 server

Running BeStMan2 server manually

From the bestman2 installation directory, run sbin/bestman.server.

SXXbestman.personal may be used for testing purpose only that it saves all screen outputs to /tmp/bestman-.log. SXXbestman.personal has four options: start, stop, check and checkjava.

“SXXbestman.personal start” will run the bestman2 server and output goes into /tmp/bestman-.log as well as on the screen.
“SXXbestman.personal stop” will stop the running server.
“SXXbestman.personal check” will check the process to see if it is running.
“SXXbestman.personal checkjava” will check java version that the server runs with.

Running BeStMan2 server from VDT installation

From the bestman2 installation directory (bestman2/sbin/SXXbestman), VDT-control will run BeStMan2 server process under daemon by default.

Running BeStMan2 server under root or installing as a startup process

As root, make a link or a copy of bestman2/sbin/SXXbestman in /etc/rc3.d as S97bestman.

SXXbestman has three options: start, stop and check.

“SXXbestman start” will run the bestman server in the background.
“SXXbestman stop” will stop the running server.
“SXXbestman check” will check the process to see if it is running.

SXXbestman has the BeStMan2 server process owner login embedded. By default, “root” will be used.
If --with-srm-owner were defined during the configuration, the specific login will be used.
If a modification is needed later, edit bestman2/sbin/SXXbestman, and modify for SRM_OWNER.
