Automatically Starting and Stopping IBM SPSS Modeler Server

IBM® SPSS® Modeler Server must be started as a daemon process. The installation program includes a script (auto.sh) that you can run to configure your system to automatically stop and restart IBM SPSS Modeler Server.

To configure the system for automatic startup and shutdown

1. Log on as root.
2. Change to the IBM SPSS Modeler Server installation directory.
3. Run the script. At the UNIX prompt, type:

./auto.sh

An automatic startup script, rc.modeler, is created in the location shown in the table above. The operating system will use rc.modeler to start the IBM SPSS Modeler Server daemon process whenever the server computer is rebooted. The operating system will also use rc.modeler to stop the daemon whenever the system is shut down.
