Restarting Aspera services

When you change product settings, you might need to restart certain Aspera® services in order for the new values to take effect.

IBM Aspera Central

If asperacentral is stopped, or if you modified the <central_server> or <database> sections in aspera.conf, then you need to restart the service.

Run the following command in a Terminal window to reload asperacentral:

$ sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.aspera.asperacentral.plist
$ sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.aspera.asperacentral.plist

IBM Aspera NodeD

Restart asperanoded if you modified any setting in aspera.conf.

Run the following commands to reload asperanoded:

$ sudo launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.aspera.asperanoded.plist
$ sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.aspera.asperanoded.plist
