fmsadmin help - starting server

[syounker]

I'm using the STOP command with fmsadmin to shut down my server during a power outage. The fmsadmin documentation does not list a corresponding START command. Does FM Server start automatically and open the databases when a computer starts up even though the STOP command was issued or is there a command that can be used within a startup script to start server and open all databases.

Thanks

Well it can work either way depending on what you've set in the SAT Tool.

[color:red]Do not set it to start automatically. You can set the Helper daemon to start autopmatically safely , but not the Server daemon.

You can then, after restart, launch the Server from the SAT Tool or from the Terminal:

fmserverd start

I'm using FM Server 8. When I use fmserverd to stop the server I get a response that server is already running.

When I use fmsadmin to stop the server, it asks me to confirm.

I want to shutdown server with a script without requiring any confirmation.

How do I do this?

fmsadmin -y stop
