WebSpeed Administration : Configuring WebSpeed on UNIX : Starting the WebSpeed Transaction Server and NameServer
Starting the WebSpeed Transaction Server and NameServer
The WebSpeed installation includes one sample NameServer and one sample WebSpeed Transaction Server instance.
To begin to develop or deploy applications on UNIX:
1. The AdminServer must be running. If the AdminServer is not running, use the PROADSV command to start it. (See Starting the AdminServer.)
2. Start an existing NameServer or create a new NameServer instance. You can create and start a NameServer by using OpenEdge Management or OpenEdge Explorer, or you can edit the ubroker.properties file to create an instance and then use the NSMAN utility to start the instance. When you configure a NameServer instance, you can set it to start up by default whenever the AdminServer starts.
If you are using OpenEdge Management or OpenEdge Explorer, see the online help for information about creating and starting an instance. If you are editing the ubroker.properties file, see Editing the ubroker.properties file.
To start a local instance of the NameServer from the command line, use the following command:
nsman -name NS1 -start
Where NS1 is the name of the NameServer.
To start a remote instance of the NameServer from the command line, use the following command:
nsman -name NS1 -host host-name -port port -start
Where host-name is the name of the host machine on which you want the instance to run; port is the port number on the AdminServer. The user-name and password in the properties file are used when starting a NameServer in this manner from UNIX.
3. Start an existing WebSpeed Transaction Server or create a new Transaction Server instance. You can create and start a Transaction Server by using OpenEdge Management or OpenEdge Explorer, or you can edit the ubroker.properties file to create an instance and then use the WTBMAN utility to start the instance. When you configure a Transaction Server instance, you can set it to start up by default whenever the AdminServer starts.
If you are using OpenEdge Management or OpenEdge Explorer, see the online help for information about creating and starting an instance. If you are editing the ubroker.properties file, see Editing the ubroker.properties file.
To start a local instance of the WebSpeed Transaction Server from the command line, use the following command:
wtbman -name wsbroker1 -start
Where wsbroker1 is the name of the WebSpeed Transaction Server.
To start a remote instance of the WebSpeed Transaction Server from the command line, use the following command:
wtbman -name wsbroker1 -host host-name -port port -start
Where host-name is the name of the host machine where you want the instance to run; port is the port number on the AdminServer. The user-name and password in the properties file are used when starting a NameServer in this manner from UNIX.
By using either OpenEdge Management/OpenEdge Explorer or the command-line utilities, you can also stop a NameServer or WebSpeed Transaction Server instance, check its status, and increase or reduce the number of running WebSpeed agents. For more information, see the OpenEdge Management or OpenEdge Explorer online help. Also see Using OpenEdge Management or OpenEdge Explorer to check status and Managing the WebSpeed Transaction Server.
