Starting Infoprint Server with the AOPSTART JCL procedure

To start Infoprint Server, you use the AOPSTART JCL procedure, which runs the aopstart REXX EXEC.

When you start Infoprint Server, these daemons start:

• aopd
• aophinvd
• aoplogd
• aopsdbd

To restart Infoprint Server, you must stop it and start it again.

Tip: The AOPSTART JCL procedure can end with abend EC6 (reason code FFFF) or abend 33E. These abends do not indicate an error. Your installation can suppress these abends in the IEASLP00 member of SYS1.PARMLIB. This statement in the IEASLP00 member suppresses EC6 abends:

SLIP SET,C=EC6,RE=0000FFXX,ID=XEC6,A=NODUMP,END

Before you begin: You must be authorized to start and stop Infoprint Server.

To start Infoprint Server:

1. Run the AOPSTART JCL procedure. Enter this MVS™ START command:

   START AOPSTART

Result: You see one or more messages in the STDOUT or STDERR data set, or in the console log. The messages for each Infoprint Server daemon can include:

AOP075I Daemon name was started successfully.
AOP076E Start of daemon name failed.
AOP077I Daemon name is already started.
AOP134E The stop of daemon name failed.
AOP137E Required Infoprint Server daemon name is not running. Stop all 
        daemons and restart.

When all Infoprint Server daemons have started, you see this message:

$HASP395 AOPSTART ENDED
