Starting unmanaged processes

You can start a process as an unmanaged process by making an OQL insert into the services.inTray table.

About this task

Your changes will be lost if the ncp_ctrl process is stopped and restarted.

To start an unmanaged process:

1. Ensure that the ncp_ctrl process is running.
2. Log into the process control databases.
3. Issue a command similar to the following:

   insert into services.unmanaged
   (
           serviceName, servicePath, argList
   )
   values
   (
           "user_script",
           "/opt/netcool/precision/solaris2/scripts/",
           [ ]
   );

Results

The above insert starts a script called user_script, located in the $NCHOME/precision/scripts directory.
