UNIX/Linux

On UNIX/Linux systems, XBM daemon can be managed up using the command xbmd from the command line of the user who will hold the XBM resources.

If properly configured, more than one instances of XBM can be run on a single system.

Usage

xbmd [options] [command]

Options

-d        java vm debug mode

-f               run in foreground

-n               do not perform session recovery

-c<file>         xbm start with specified configuration file

-y               forces YES reply in shutdown

-i               immediate shutdown

Command

start                starts XBM daemon (default)

stop                 stops XBM daemon

dbm                  start XBM Datasource Manager

If the foreground mode is specified on command line, XBM daemon starts as a foreground process. If no parameter is specified, XBM daemon works in the background.

Startup

The startup is performed by issuing:

xbmd start

This command may be inserted in system startup scripts.

Shutdown

Only administrator users can shutdown XBM daemon. Shutdown can be requested using command line or GUI console.

From command line shutdown may invoke issuing:

xbmc shutdown

or

xbmd stop

When shutdown is invoked, XBM stops accepting further JCL submission, and waits for all scheduled requests to be completed.

If the immediate shutdown is requested, XBM backups the stand by queue and kills all running jobs.
