Automatic startup procedure for Control-M/Server on UNIX (optional)

The database server and Control-M/Server must be running at all times on the initial Control-M/Server installation. BMC Software recommends that they be started at system startup time.

You can modify the startup procedure to ensure that the database server, Control-M/Server, and the Control-M/Server Configuration Agent are started during system startup. The command to copy the necessary startup instructions to your system startup directory is listed below.

All commands shown below must be executed as the root user.

Do not perform this procedure when installing Control-M/Server on a mirror (backup) environment.

Depending on your operating system, modify the automatic startup procedure as described in the following table:

Example

AIX

cp <ctmHome>/ctm_server/data/rc.<controlmUser> /etc/

Open the /etc/inittab file in an editor, and append the following line at the end of the file.

<controlmUser>:2:respawn:/etc/rc.<controlmUser>

For a user called controlm, specify the following command:
   cp /home/controlm/ctm_server/data/rc.controlm /etc
and in file /etc/inittab add:
   controlm:2:respawn:/etc/rc.controlm

HP-UX and HP-Itanium

cp <ctmHome>/ctm_server/data/rc.<controlmUser> /sbin/init.d/<controlmUser>
ln -s /sbin/init.d/<controlmUser> /sbin/rc2.d/S980<controlmUser>

cp /home/controlm/ctm_server/data/rc.controlm /sbin/init.d/controlm
ln -s /sbin/init.d/controlm /sbin/rc2.d/S980controlm

Oracle Solaris

cp <ctmHome>/ctm_server/data/rc.<controlmUser> /etc/rc2.d/S98<controlmUser>

cp /home/controlm/ctm_server/data/rc.controlm /etc/rc2.d/S98ccontrolm

Linux

cp <ctmHome>/ctm_server/data/rc.<controlmUser> /etc/rc.d/<controlmUser>

ln -s /etc/rc.d<controlmUser> /etc/rc.d/rc2.d/S98<controlmUser>

cp /home/controlm/ctm_server/data/rc.controlm/etc/rc.d/controlm

ln -s/etc/rc.d/controlm/etc/rc.d/rc2.d/S98controlm
