Verifying that the Copy Services Manager server is running

You can verify that the Copy Services Manager server is running in several ways.

About this task

Complete one or more of these tasks to determine whether the Copy Services Manager server is running:

Procedure

  • Start the Copy Services Manager GUI or command-line interface shell. If either of these methods is successful, the Copy Services Manager server is running.
  • View the csmTrace.log file. For distributed systems, this file is in the install dir\liberty\wlp\usr\servers\csmServer\logs\CSM\ directory. For z/OS systems, this file is in the path_prefix/opt/IBM/CSM/wlp/usr/servers/csmServer/logs/CSM directory. If the csmTrace.log file is updated regularly and is increasing in size, the Copy Services Manager server is running.
    Note: For z/OS systems, you can also issue the /D A,L command to display the processes that are running.
