Refreshing parameters using the ctmipc utility

This procedure describes how to run the ctmipc utility, which enables you to send a message to Control-M/Server processes, which instructs the processes to perform a specific action. The ctmipc utility can only be used to refresh recently updated parameters as an alternative to restarting Control-M/Server.

EXAMPLE: Specify the following command to send the message "CFG" to all Control-M/Server processes:

ctmipc -dest ALL -msgid CFG

To run the utility:

1. Do one of the following:
   • UNIX: Log on to a Control-M/Server account
   • Windows: Open a command prompt window where Control-M/Server is installed.
2. Type the following command:

   ctmipc

   -DEST <CE|CS|SU|TR|WD|RT|ALL>

   -MSGID <CFG>

   { -DATA <message data>]

   [ -QUIET ]

   [ -DEBUG <debug level> ]
