Starting and stopping EAServer

EAServer must be running before you can install Security, Portal Search, Portal Interface, and Portal Studio.

StepsStarting EAServer

  1. Set the JAGUAR environment variable to the location of your EAServer installation; for example:

    setenv JAGUAR /work/Sybase/EAServer
    
  2. Change to the EAServer bin directory, and run serverstart; for example:

    cd /work/Sybase/EAServer/bin
    serverstart.sh
    

    The server starts and runs as a foreground process in the current console window. To start the server in a separate window, use the -xterm option; for example:

    cd /work/Sybase/EAServer/bin
    serverstart.sh -xterm
    

    The server starts in a new X terminal window. To use this option, you must have installed and configured X-Windows. In other words, the xterm command must successfully launch a terminal window in the shell where you start the server.

StepsShutting down EAServer

  1. From Jaguar Manager, expand the Servers folder, and highlight the server to which Jaguar Manager is connected. You must be connected to a server to shut it down. For example, the default server is “Jaguar.”

  2. Right-click the server you want to shut down and select Shutdown.

    Unless you have changed the listener address for the server, you can remain logged in to Jaguar Manager and resume work after you have restarted the server.
