Linux: Stopping the server
You can stop the server when needed to return control to the operating system. To avoid losing administrative and client node connections, stop the server only after current sessions are completed or canceled.
About this task
To stop the server, issue the following command from
the Tivoli® Storage
Manager command
line:
halt
The server console stops.If you cannot connect to the server
with an administrative client and you want to stop the server, you
must cancel the process by using the kill command
with the process ID number (pid) that is displayed at initialization.
Important: Before you issue the kill command,
ensure that you know the correct process ID for the Tivoli Storage
Manager server.
The dsmserv.v6lock file,
in the directory from which the server is running, can be used to
identify the process ID of the process to kill. To display the file
enter:cat /instance_dir/dsmserv.v6lock
Issue the following
command to stop the server:
kill -23 dsmserv_pid
where dsmserv_pid is
the process ID number.
